Phenotypic variability induced by parasites:.

Parasitology today (Personal ed.) - 1 Jan 1999

Poulin R, Thomas F

Abstract excerpt

The diversity of ways in which parasites can modify the host genotypic signal has been documented in recent years. For example, parasites can shift the mean value and increase the variance of phenotypic traits in host populations, or alter the phenotypic sex ratio of host populations, with several evolutionary implications. Here, Robert Poulin and Frederic Thomas review the types of host traits that are modified...
