Divvying up the pie: Tissue nutrient content is related to its parasite load. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe investigated how the size and composition of parasitic infracommunities are affected by the nutrient content of their infection sites. We expected infracommunities to be dominated by parasites that were stoichiometrically similar to their infection sites. However, we found that parasites, themselves, can vary in nutrient content and that the size of
