Advice of the rose: experimental coevolution of a trematode parasite and its snail host

B Koskella, CM Lively - Evolution, 2007 - academic.oup.com
Understanding host-parasite coevolution requires multigenerational studies in which
changes in both parasite infectivity and host susceptibility are monitored. We conducted a …

Effects of first intermediate host density, host size and salinity on trematode infections in mussels of the south-western Baltic Sea

C Bommarito, DW Thieltges, C Pansch, FR Barboza… - Parasitology, 2021 - cambridge.org
Trematode prevalence and abundance in hosts are known to be affected by biotic drivers as
well as by abiotic drivers. In this study, we used the unique salinity gradient found in the …

Sympatric versus allopatric evolutionary contexts shape differential immune response in Biomphalaria / Schistosoma interaction

A Portet, S Pinaud, C Chaparro, R Galinier… - PloS …, 2019 - journals.plos.org
Selective pressures between hosts and their parasites can result in reciprocal evolution or
adaptation of specific life history traits. Local adaptation of resident hosts and parasites …

Fine-scale spatial covariation between infection prevalence and susceptibility in a natural population

AK Gibson, J Jokela, CM Lively - The American Naturalist, 2016 - journals.uchicago.edu
The prevalence of infection varies dramatically on a fine spatial scale. Many evolutionary
hypotheses are founded on the assumption that this variation is due to host genetics, such …

Genomic evidence for population‐specific responses to co‐evolving parasites in a New Zealand freshwater snail

L Bankers, P Fields, KE McElroy, JL Boore… - Molecular …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Reciprocal co‐evolving interactions between hosts and parasites are a primary source of
strong selection that can promote rapid and often population‐or genotype‐specific …

Fasciola hepatica-Pseudosuccinea columella interaction: effect of increasing parasite doses, successive exposures and geographical origin on the infection …

A Alba, AA Vázquez, J Sánchez, D Duval… - Parasites & vectors, 2018 - Springer
Background Pseudosuccinea columella is one of the most widespread vectors of Fasciola
hepatica, a globally distributed trematode that affects humans, livestock and wildlife. The …

Quantifying the coevolutionary potential of multistep immune defenses

SL Nuismer, MF Dybdahl - Evolution, 2016 - academic.oup.com
Coevolutionary models often assume host infection by parasites depends on a single bout of
molecular recognition. As detailed immunological studies accumulate, however, it becomes …

Host–parasite interactions in sympatric and allopatric populations of European bitterling

K Francová, M Ondračková - Parasitology research, 2011 - Springer
Susceptibility to parasite infection was examined in a field experiment for four populations of
0+ juvenile European bitterling (Rhodeus amarus): one sympatric to local parasite fauna …

Prior infections or defence priming: what determines the risk of trematode infections in amphipod hosts?

OG McPherson, OC Friesen, C Selbach, R Poulin - Parasitology research, 2018 - Springer
Inducible defences against parasites that are only activated when needed can mitigate the
cost of immune or behavioural evasion of parasites. Priming of the immune system and …

L'émergence et la ré-émergence de maladies que nous connaissons depuis ces cents
dernières années représentent une véritable crise sanitaire en grande partie due aux …
