Water boatman survival and fecundity are related to ectoparasitism and salinity stress.
PLoS ONE, 2019 Salinity is increasing in aquatic ecosystems in the Mediterranean region due to global change, and this is likely to have an important impact on host-parasite interactions.

Seasonal variation and host sex affect bat–bat fly interaction networks in the Amazonian savannahs
Integrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 400-416, May 2024.Our data provide information on the interactions between bats and bat flies in one of the largest portions of Brazilian Amazonian savannah. Here, we demonstrate that environmental variations and host sex can influence the structure of interaction networks formed between bats and their ectoparasitic flies. Abstract Bats are the second‐most diverse group

Signatures of dysbiosis in fish microbiomes in the context of aquaculture
Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 706-731, March 2024.Fish gut microbiome is highly susceptible to salinity changes and antimicrobial treatments, whereas external microbiomes seem to be more susceptible to disease and variations in temperature. Treatments with tetracyclines and florfenicol, as well as bacterial diseases, prompt severe dysbiosis, whereas quinolones, disinfectants and parasitic diseases ...
