Ligula intestinalis (Cestoda: Pseudophyllidea): an ideal fish-metazoan parasite model? [PDF]
Since its use as a model to study metazoan parasite culture and in vitro development, the plerocercoid of the tapeworm, Ligula intestinalis, has served as a useful scientific tool to study a range of biological factors, particularly within its fish ...

What makes a host profitable? Parasites balance host nutritive resources against immunity [PDF]
Numerous host qualities can modulate parasite fitness, and among these, host nutritive resources and immunity are of prime importance. Indeed, parasite fitness increases with the amount of nutritive resources extracted from the host body and decreases ...
