Diet quality determines interspecific parasite interactions in host populations [PDF]

, 2014
The widespread occurrence of multiple infections and the often vast range of nutritional resources for their hosts allow that interspecific parasite interactions in natural host populations might be determined by host diet quality. Nevertheless, the role

Opportunistic Feeding and Parasite Assemblages in Sei Whales (Balaenoptera borealis) From Southern Chile Revealed by DNA Metabarcoding

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study represents the first metabarcoding‐based description of prey composition and parasite‐associated taxa in stranded sei whales from southern South America. ABSTRACT Balaenopterid whales are major consumers in pelagic ecosystems and play a fundamental role in marine food webs.

Host sexual dimorphism and parasite adaptation [PDF]

, 2012
In species with separate sexes, parasite prevalence and disease expression is often different between males and females. This effect has mainly been attributed to sex differences in host traits, such as immune response.

First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...

Rat and fish peripheral blood leukocytes respond distinctively to Anisakis pegreffii (Nematoda, Anisakidae) crude extract

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Infective third-stage larvae (L3) of the marine nematode Anisakis pegreffii cause inflammation and clinical symptoms in humans, their accidental host, that subside and self-resolve in a couple of weeks after L3 die.
