Behavior out of control: experimental evolution of resistance to host manipulation [PDF]
, 2019 Many parasites alter their host's phenotype in a manner that enhances their own fitness beyond the benefits they would gain from normal exploitation. Such host manipulation is rarely consistent with the host's best interests resulting in suboptimal and ...

Intraspecific Variation in the Characteristics of Cryptocaryon irritans Isolated in Japan
Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cryptocaryon irritans is an obligate parasitic ciliate and the causative agent of cryptocaryoniasis. This parasite is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical marine waters, and numerous outbreaks in aquaculture have been reported worldwide. Previous studies have documented variations in biological traits, such as cell size, serotype and

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ectoparasites that penetrate host skin can act as biological or mechanical vectors for pathogens and, in some cases, serve as reservoirs. Crustacean ectoparasites of fish are potential vectors of pathogens, which is especially relevant for obligate pathogens (e.g., Aeromonas salmonicida) with limited seawater survival. Sea lice (Lepeophtheirus

Marine Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract The focus of the present study was on arcturid isopods occurring in the subarctic region around Iceland. Data from two decades of sampling with an epibenthic sledge (EBS) during numerous expeditions of the BIOICE (Benthic Invertebrates of Icelandic Waters; 1992–2004) and IceAGE (Icelandic marine Animals: Genetics and Ecology; 2011—ongoing ...

Dispersal and gene flow in free-living marine nematodes [PDF]
, 2013 Dispersal and gene flow determine connectivity among populations, and can be studied through population genetics and phylogeography. We here review the results of such a framework for free-living marine nematodes.

The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?
Marine Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...
