The effect of increasing water temperatures on Schistosoma mansoni transmission and Biomphalaria pfeifferi population dynamics: an agent-based modelling study. [PDF]

, 2014
INTRODUCTION: There is increasing interest in the control and elimination of schistosomiasis. Little is known, however, about the likely effects of increasing water-body temperatures on transmission. METHODS: We have developed an agent-based model of the

Selection on male and female reproductive traits in a simultaneous hermaphrodite land snail [PDF]

, 2013
Classical sexual selection theory assumes that the reproductive success of females is limited by the resources available for egg production, while the reproductive success of males is determined by the number of mates (Bateman’s principle).

Life-history responses, transmission dynamics and epidemiology in a terrestrial gastropod infected with parasitic mites [PDF]

, 2010
Parasites are known to influence the life-history of their hosts. A parasite-induced reduction in host fecundity and survival may lead to a reduced rate of increase in the host population.
