Life history and mating systems select for male biased parasitism mediated through natural selection and ecological feedbacks [PDF]
Males are often the "sicker" sex with male biased parasitism found in a taxonomically diverse range of species. There is considerable interest in the processes that could underlie the evolution of sex-biased parasitism.

Chytridiomycosis of marine diatoms : the role of stress physiology and resistance in parasite-host recognition and accumulation of defense molecules [PDF]
Little is known about the role of chemotaxis in the location and attachment of chytrid zoospores to potential diatom hosts. Hypothesizing that environmental stress parameters affect parasite-host recognition, four chytrid-diatom tandem cultures ...

Prevalence of Sarcocystis calchasi in free-ranging host species: Accipiter hawks and Common Woodpigeon in Germany [PDF]
The apicomplexan parasite Sarcocystis calchasi (S. calchasi) triggers pigeon protozoal encephalitis, a neurologic disease in columbids. Accipiter hawks have been identified as the final host, and Columbidae and Psittaciformes as intermediate hosts.

Host-Parasite Relation in Invasive Aspergillosis
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 ...
