Bird community effects on avian malaria infections: Dilution or amplification?

2023-04-10

Abstract excerpt

The human modification of the landscape and subsequent changes in biotic variables, such as community structure and composition, can alter host-parasite dynamics. In addition, a beneficial effect of wildlife diversity on zoonotic disease risk and transmission has been proposed. Here, we studied the effects of the bird community on the prevalence and richness of lineages of avian haemosporidian in the highly divers...
