Hitchhiking Parasites: Unstructured Populations of Bat Ectoparasites Reveal Host-Driven Dispersal.

Molecular ecology - 1 Mar 2026

Castex Clara, Cumer Tristan, Goudet Jérôme, Christe Philippe

Abstract excerpt

Understanding factors influencing the dynamics and distribution of parasites is essential to decipher the mechanism behind their spread and the identification of populations with elevated risks of infection. Bats-together with the diverse parasites they host and the influence of their social behaviour on parasitism-offer a suitable system. We investigated the extent to which differences in life history traits...
