Host dispersal as the driver of parasite genetic structure: a paradigm lost?

Ecology letters - 1 Mar 2016

Mazé-Guilmo Elise, Blanchet Simon, McCoy Karen D, Loot Géraldine

Abstract excerpt

Understanding traits influencing the distribution of genetic diversity has major ecological and evolutionary implications for host-parasite interactions. The genetic structure of parasites is expected to conform to that of their hosts, because host dispersal is generally assumed to drive parasite dispersal. Here, we used a meta-analysis to test this paradigm and determine whether traits related to host dispersal...
