Experimental evidence that host choice by parasites is age-dependent in a fish-monogenean system
(2022-01-01)
Host age is known to influence the risk of parasite infection, but there is very little experimental evidence on whether parasites show preference towards potential hosts of a specific age. To investigate how host age ...
Vector within-host feeding preference mediates transmission of a heterogeneously distributed pathogen
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2010)
2. We documented the within-host distribution of two vector species that differ in transmission efficiency, the leafhoppers Draeculacephala minerva and Graphocephala atropunctata, and which are free to move throughout ...
Complexity and anisotropy in host morphology make populations less susceptible to epidemic outbreaks
(ROYAL SOC, 2010)
One of the challenges in epidemiology is to account for the complex morphological structure of hosts such as plant roots, crop fields, farms, cells, animal habitats and social networks, when the transmission of infection ...
On Achieving Seamless IP Communications in Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks
(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers, 2015)
The supporting infrastructure and communications technologies for vehicular networking contexts are heterogeneous by nature. Large coverage access networks, such as 3G/4G, co-exist with wireless local area networks and ...
Phenotypic plasticity in clutch size regulation among populations of a potential invasive fruit fly from environments that vary in host heterogeneity and isolation
(Cambridge University Press, 2018-05)
Phenotypic plasticity is thought to evolve in response to environmental unpredictability and can shield genotypes from selection. However, selection can also act on plastic traits. Egg-laying behaviour, including clutch ...
Low genetic diversities of rabies virus populations within different hosts in Brazil
(Elsevier B.V., 2010-03-01)
The low rates of nonsynonymous evolution observed in natural rabies virus (RABV) isolates are suggested to have arisen in association with the structural and functional constraints operating on the virus protein and the ...
