Experimental removal of nematode parasites increases growth, sprint speed, and mating success in brown anole lizards. [PDF]
J Exp Zool A Ecol Integr Physiol, 2022 Nematode parasites are costly to juvenile brown anoles, Anolis sagrei, in terms of growth. Nematode parasite removal increased over winter growth in snout‐vent length for juvenile brown anoles. Abstract Parasites interact with nearly all free‐living organisms and can impose substantial fitness costs by reducing host survival, mating success, and ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 15, Page 10338-10352, August 2021., 2021 Parasites are central to ecosystems but often overlooked. We investigated broad‐scale interactions between gastrointestinal parasites and their hosts by sampling the widely distributed gray wolf (Canis lupus) across six populations on two continents. As expected, wolf density was positively associated with the prevalence of fecal parasites transmitted ...
