Avian Malaria Infections Are Not Associated With Host Genetic Diversity: A Meta-Analysis.

Molecular ecology - 1 May 2026

Podmokła Edyta, Pluciński Bartosz, Dubiec Anna

Abstract excerpt

Genetic diversity is essential for the adaptive potential of species, particularly in the context of parasitic infections, which exert strong selective pressures on host populations. While reduced genetic diversity is often linked to increased susceptibility to infection, the extent to which this applies across different genetic markers and ecological contexts remains unclear. In this meta-analysis, we...
