Host-manipulation by parasites with complex life cycles: adaptive or not?

Trends in parasitology - 1 Jun 2010

Cézilly Frank, Thomas Frédéric, Médoc Vincent, Perrot-Minnot Marie-Jeanne

Abstract excerpt

The effect of host manipulation by parasites on trophic transmission to final hosts remains unclear. The transmission benefits gained by manipulative parasites are difficult to assess, and evidence for a causal link between manipulation and trophic transmission is missing. In addition, infected intermediate hosts can also be more vulnerable to predation by nonhosts, whereas recent theoretical advances indicate...
