Abstract excerpt
Biodiversity loss and emerging diseases threaten ecosystem and human health. Identifying ecological drivers of host-parasite dynamics in human-altered landscapes is crucial, including at the scale of parasite genetic diversity. We investigated genetic diversity and ecological drivers of gastrointestinal strongylid nematodes infecting a primate community in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. We surveyed primates in the...
