Parasite―host coevolution and geographic patterns of parasite infectivity and host susceptibility

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1996
Ebert (1994) has proposed the rule that parasites are, with few exceptions, more infective to sympatric hosts than to allopatric hosts. We test this rule using field data for schistosome infections of planorbid snails and find that, although sympatric parasite-host combinations do tend to be more compatible, there are exceptions where particular ...

Evolution of Host-Parasite Diversity

Evolution, 1993
Hosts and parasites often have extensive genetic diversity for resistance and virulence (host range). Qualitative diversity occurs when the success of attack is an all-or-nothing response that varies according to the genotypes of the host and parasite.

Host-Parasite Relationships

1984
Life on earth probably began about 3500 million years ago and since then an enormous diversity of micro organisms, animals and plants has evolved and become adapted to live in one of the three major habitats of the planet. Probably all readers will accept that land and water form two of the habitats.
