Host phylogeny matters: examining sources of variation in infection risk by blood parasites across a tropical montane bird community in India

2020-10-17

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>Identifying patterns and drivers of infection risk among host communities is crucial to elucidate disease dynamics and predict infectious disease risk in wildlife populations. Blood parasites of the genera <italic>Plasmodium</italic> and <italic>Haemoproteus</italic> are a diverse group of vector-borne protozoan parasites that affect bird populations globally. D...
