Impact of microphallid trematodes on the survivorship, growth, and reproduction of an isopod (Cyathura carinata) [PDF]
, 2005 Crustaceans are second intermediate hosts to several microphallid species (Trematoda). Some of these parasites are potentially pathogenic or manipulative. A laboratory experiment was performed to assess the impact of microphallids on the survival, growth

Host-parasite relationships in the genome [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2011 Transposable elements are best interpreted as genomic parasites, proliferating in genomes through their over-replication relative to the rest of the genome. A new study examining correlations across Drosophila species between transposable element numbers and rates of host evolution has brought into focus one of the most complex questions in ...

Host Castration as a Parasitic Strategy [PDF]
Evolution, 1975 The "destruction or alteration of (the host's) gonad tissue by parasites" (Noble and Noble, 1971) is widely referred to as parasitic castration. It is often accompanied by a modification in the expression of the host's secondary sexual characteristics and may also have a variety of other physiological and behavioral effects.

Parasite host range and the evolution of host resistance [PDF]
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2015 AbstractParasite host range plays a pivotal role in the evolution and ecology of hosts and the emergence of infectious disease. Although the factors that promote host range and the epidemiological consequences of variation in host range are relatively well characterized, the effect of parasite host range on host resistance evolution is less well ...
