Stochastic host-parasite interaction models
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2000We contribute to the discussion of causes and effects of aggregation (overdispersion) of macroparasite counts, focussing particularly upon the effects of clumped infections and parasite-induced host mortality. The simple nonlinear stochastic model for the evolution of the parasite load of a single host, investigated in Isham (1995), is extended to ...

Host/Parasite Interactions in Bacterial Endophthalmitis
Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, 1997Bacterial infections within the eye arise as complications of intraocular surgery, penetrating injury, or hematogenous spread from distant anatomical sites. Because: 1) the interior surfaces of the eye are lined with sensitive, nonregenerating tissues, 2) the inner chambers of the eye are relatively sequestered from circulating immunological components,

1979
All organisms have evolved defence mechanisms for protection against invasion and establishment by micro-organisms and by metazoan parasites. Although ideally we should include the viruses and bacteria in our current discussion, space precludes such a full consideration.

Host–parasite interactions in polluted environments
Journal of Fish Biology, 2008In recent years, there has been an increasing number of papers showing how parasitism and pollution can interact with each other in aquatic organisms. In addition to synergistic negative effects of both stressors, there are also indications of antagonistic interactions.

1986
Host-parasite interactions have been studied by means of formal genetic procedures since the beginning of this century. It soon proved that resistance of a plant is inherited in a rather simple manner. Parasites, however, have been studied to a much lesser extent than the host plants, largely because of the difficulties in cultivating parasitic ...

Host-parasite interaction in fungal infections
European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 1989The outcome of host-parasite interactions in fungal infections is determined by the balance between pathogenicity of the organism and the adequacy of the host defenses. A wide variety of host defense mechanisms are involved in protection against fungal infections.

Evolutionary Genetics of Host-Parasite Interactions
2006Abstract Parasites include a broad group of organisms: from viruses to parasitic fish, including a few plant species. While some parasites have little or no effect on their hosts, most have been shown to significantly affect host traits such as morphology, life history, and mating system (Kuris 1974; Clay & Putten 1999 ...

Signals in Host-Parasite Interactions
1997Plants are resistant to most potential pathogens in their environment; in fact, relatively few true host-pathogen pairs exist in which the plant is susceptible and the pathogen virulent. Within a susceptible plant species, specific cultivars carry genes which give them resistance to specific pathogen races harboring the corresponding avirulence genes ...
