Climate change promotes parasitism in a coral symbiosis [PDF]
Coastal oceans are increasingly eutrophic, warm and acidic through the addition of anthropogenic nitrogen and carbon, respectively. Among the most sensitive taxa to these changes are scleractinian corals, which engineer the most biodiverse ecosystems on ...

Apparent competition drives community-wide parasitism rates and changes in host abundance across ecosystem boundaries [PDF]
Species have strong indirect effects on others, and predicting these effects is a central challenge in ecology. Prey species sharing an enemy (predator or parasitoid) can be linked by apparent competition, but it is unknown whether this process is strong

Cross antigenicity of immunodominant polypeptides of somatic antigen of Oesophagostomum columbianum with other helminths by western blotting [PDF]
Aim: Oesophagostomum columbianum in small ruminants in India is found as mixed infection commonly in sheep and goat. Haemonchus contortus, an abomasal nematode is found as concurrent infection with it. Eggs of Haemonchus and O.

Studying the interspecific relationships of exotic species can provide an important theoretical basis for revealing the invasion processes of exotic species, predicting the scope and harm of proliferation, and, subsequently, suggesting reasonable ...

IntroductionParasitic plants can damage crop plants and consequently cause yield losses and thus threaten food security. Resource availability (e.g., phosphorus, water) has an important role in the response of crop plants to biotic attacks.

Helminth community structure of Didelphis marsupialis (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae) in a transition area between the Brazilian Amazon and the Cerrado [PDF]
Although the common opossum, Didelphis marsupialis (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) is a species widely distributed in South America, knowledge about their helminth parasites and helminth community structure is scarce.

Response to selection for parasitism of a suboptimal, low‐preference host in an aphid parasitoid
Risks of postintroduction evolution in insects introduced to control invasive pests have been discussed for some time, but little is known about responses to selection or genetic architectures of host adaptation and thus about the likelihood or rapidity ...

This study evaluated parasitism rates by Hadronotus pennsylvanicus (Ashmead) (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) on the squash bug Anasa tristis DeGeer (Hemiptera: Coreidae) over a six-year period in squash fields in Maryland. From 2016–2021, 2226 wild squash bug
