Host-dependent genetic structure of parasite populations: differential dispersal of seabird tick host races.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Feb 2003

McCoy Karen D, Boulinier Thierry, Tirard Claire, Michalakis Yannis

Abstract excerpt

Despite the fact that parasite dispersal is likely to be one of the most important processes influencing the dynamics and coevolution of host-parasite interactions, little information is available on the factors that affect it. In most cases, opportunities for parasite dispersal should be closely linked to host biology. Here we use microsatellite genetic markers to compare the population structure and dispersal...
