Fact or hypothesis: concomitant immunity in taeniid cestode infections. [PDF]
Parasite Immunol, 2010 SummarySustained research efforts over the last 50 years have revealed a considerable amount of information about immunity to taeniid cestode infections in the parasites’ intermediate hosts. As a product of this research, a series of effective recombinant vaccines have been developed which have no parallel in any other group of parasitic organisms ...

Copepod reaction to odor stimuli influenced by cestode infection [PDF]
Behavioral Ecology, 1998 The cestode Scktstocephahis solidus uses copepods as first and sticklebacks as second intermediate hosts. For transmission, an infected copepod has to be preyed upon by a stickleback. We used copepods of the species Macrocydops albidus to test whether infected and uninfected copepods differ in their reaction to two kind of simultaneously presented ...
