[HTML][HTML] Can environmental change affect host/parasite-mediated speciation?

FS Brunner, C Eizaguirre - Zoology, 2016 - Elsevier
Parasitism can be a driver of species divergence and thereby significantly alter species
formation processes. While we still need to better understand how parasite-mediated …

[HTML][HTML] Effects of environmental variation on host–parasite interaction in three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus)
