Energetic and oxidative costs of microfilarial infection: evidence for fitness trade‐offs in male village weavers of the Amurum Forest Reserve

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Microfilariae contribute to a higher energetic demand that could lead to oxidative damage and reduce hosts' fitness. Yet reports about the energy status and oxidative stress‐defense mechanisms of infected wild birds are rarely documented. We investigated the relationship between microfilariae and the energy status and oxidative damage‐defense ...
