Botfly parasitism effects on nestling growth and mortality of Red-crested Cardinals
(Wilson Ornithological Society, 2011-03)
We collected observational data in three consecutive breeding seasons to study interactions between the botfly Philornis seguyi and Red-crested Cardinals (Paroaria coronata) in a temperate zone near the southern limit of ...
Role of temperature and carbonate system variability on a host-parasite system: Implications for the gigantism hypothesis
(International Journal for Parasitology Parasites and Wildlife, 2020)
Role of temperature and carbonate system variability on a host-parasite system: Implications for the gigantism hypothesis.
Biological interactions and environmental constraints alter life-history traits, modifying organismal performances. Trematode parasites often impact their hosts by inducing parasitic castration, frequently correlated with ...
ATPe dynamics in protozoan parasites. Adapt or Perish
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2018-12-27)
In most animals, transient increases of extracellular ATP (ATPe) are used for physiological signaling or as a danger signal in pathological conditions. ATPe dynamics are controlled by ATP release from viable cells and cell ...
Biodiversity of the metazoan parasites of Prochilodus lineatus (Valenciennes, 1837) (Characiformes: Prochilodontidae) in anthropized environments from the Batalha River, Sao Paulo State, Brazil
(Revista Biota Neotropica, 2018-01-01)
Biodiversity of fish parasites is a field of significant growth worldwide, whether due to the advancement of fish farms or the important role of these organisms as indicators of environment quality and ecosystem health, ...
Context-Dependence in parasite effects on keyhole limpets

Context-Dependence in parasite effects on keyhole limpets
(Elsevier, 2021)
Do sex ratio and development differ in sexually size-dimorphic shiny cowbirds (Molothrus bonariensis) parasitizing smaller and larger hosts?
(Wiley, 2013-10)
Two possible patterns of bias in primary sex ratio have been proposed for size-dimorphic brood parasites that do not evict host chicks: (1) larger males should be laid at greater frequency in hosts larger than the parasite ...
