Walking with insects: molecular mechanisms behind parasitic manipulation of host behaviour.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jul 2013

van Houte Stineke, Ros Vera I D, van Oers Monique M

Abstract excerpt

Parasitic infections are often followed by changes in host behaviour. Numerous and exquisite examples of such behavioural alterations are known, covering a broad spectrum of parasites and hosts. Most descriptions of such parasite-induced changes in host behaviour are observational reports, while experimentally confirmed examples of parasite genes inducing these changes are limited. In this study, we review...
