The impacts of nutrition quality on host-parasite dynamics in wild wood mice

2020-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Factors from the environmental, host, and parasite community levels can all determine helminth burden in natural populations. In particular, the nutritional resources available to the host have long been associated with helminths; a large body of work in the laboratory has shown that both macro-and micro-nutrients play an important role in host response to infection. However, the relationship among nutrition, immu...
