Host association influences variation at salivary protein genes in the bat ectoparasite Cimex adjunctus.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 May 2018

Talbot Benoit, Vonhof Maarten J, Broders Hugh G, Fenton Brock, Keyghobadi Nusha

Abstract excerpt

Parasite-host relationships create strong selection pressures that can lead to adaptation and increasing specialization of parasites to their hosts. Even in relatively loose host-parasite relationships, such as between generalist ectoparasites and their hosts, we may observe some degree of specialization of parasite populations to one of the multiple potential hosts. Salivary proteins are used by blood-feeding...
