Malaria infections reinforce competitive asymmetry between two Ficedula flycatchers in a recent contact zone.

Molecular ecology - 1 Sept 2013

Kulma Katarzyna, Low Matthew, Bensch Staffan, Qvarnström Anna

Abstract excerpt

Parasites may influence the outcome of interspecific competition between closely related host species through lower parasite virulence in the host with which they share the longer evolutionary history. We tested this idea by comparing the prevalence of avian malaria (Haemosporidia) lineages and their association with survival in pied and collared flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca and F. albicollis) breeding in a...
