Abstract Parasite species frequently co‐occur more or less than expected by chance. These nonrandom co‐occurrence patterns can be driven by pre‐ or postinfection priority effects: parasites are more or less likely to attempt infection in a host already infected by another parasite species or may have higher or lower establishment and survival in hosts ...

Host tolerance and resistance to parasitic nest flies differs between two wild bird species
Host defenses to parasitic nest flies differ between tree swallows and eastern bluebirds. Both host species are tolerant to their respective parasite loads but swallows are more resistance to the parasites, which is mediated by the parasite‐binding antibody response in nestlings.
