Monte Carlo simulation of age-dependent host–parasite relations [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2007
The death of a biological population is an extreme event which we investigate here for a host-parasitoid system. Our simulations using the Penna ageing model show how biological evolution can ``teach'' the parasitoids to avoid extinction by waiting for the right age of the host. We also show the dependence of extinction time on the population size.

Implicações da agregação espacial de parasitas para a dinâmica populacional na interação hospedeiro-parasita Implications of spatial aggregation of parasites for the population dynamics in host-parasite interaction

open access: yesRevista de Saúde Pública, 1997
São discutidos aspectos relacionados ao padrão comumente observado de distribuição agregada de parasitas na população-hospedeira. Geralmente observa-se que a maioria dos hospedeiros alberga poucos parasitas, enquanto que poucos hospedeiros albergam a ...

Host-Parasite Relation in Invasive Aspergillosis

open access: yesNippon Ishinkin Gakkai Zasshi, 2002
Invasive aspergillosis has become one of the most important infectious complications of intensive modern medicine often limiting the success of oncological treatments and transplantation. The rationale for this is found in the effects of immunosuppressive therapies and to a lesser degree underlying disease processes as well as in properties of the ...

Host-Parasite Interactions and Population Dynamics of Rock Ptarmigan.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Populations of rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in Iceland fluctuate in multiannual cycles with peak numbers c. every 10 years. We studied the ptarmigan-parasite community and how parasites relate to ptarmigan age, body condition, and population density. We
