Host sweet host: Rodent communities support similar ectoparasite diversity regardless of anthropogenic disturbance

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 5, Page 537-552, June 2024.
Abstract Rodents are important hosts for ectoparasites, such as fleas, ticks, and mites, which means they are also important intermediate hosts for many zoonotic diseases.

How to enhance the acceptability of insects food—A review

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 311-328, March 2024.
Exploring new food sources is very tempting for achieving zero hunger of the world and edible insects (EIs) may be one of the ways to solve human protein deficiency. However, there is still largely rejection in various parts of the world. In this review, we systematically summarize the factors behind rejection of EIs as well as ways to improve the ...

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2015
Concomitant infection with more than one parasite species is the rule in nature. Since co-infecting parasites are exploiting the same host, interspecific interactions at the infracommunity level are likely. The nature of such interactions can be expected
