In this review, information was summarized on endoparasites found in six non-domesticated neotropical animals. These mammals have the potential to be domesticated. The animals …
Within-host interactions among coinfecting parasites are common and have important consequences for host health and disease dynamics. However, these within-host …

Despite the intensive use of immune indices in immunoecology, whether to interpret the results of immune indices in terms of actual immune competence (ie ability to control and …
Coccidiosis caused by Eimeria species is a well-recognized disease of livestock. Enteric Eimeria infections are common, but disease usually only manifests when infection intensity …
Background Co-infection with multiple parasite species is commonly observed in nature and interspecific interactions are likely to occur in parasite infracommunities. Such interactions …
Hosts are often infested by multiple parasite species, but it is often unclear whether patterns of parasite co-occurrence are driven by parasite habitat requirements or parasite species …
We investigated patterns of helminth infection in two closely related rodents (social Rhabdomys pumilio occurring mainly in xeric habitats and solitary R. dilectus occurring …
Concomitant infection with more than one parasite species is the rule in nature. Since co- infecting parasites are exploiting the same host, interspecific interactions at the …
