Inferring from patterns observed in biomedical research, ecoimmunological theory predicts
that oxidative stress is a ubiquitous physiological cost that contributes to generating variation …

The mechanisms underlying parasite-altered host behavior and fitness remain largely
unanswered. The purpose of this review is to provide a perspective that has not been fully …

Studies of animal locomotion and movement largely assume that individuals are healthy and
performing to the best of their abilities in ways which are adapted to their survival. However …

Environmental conditions experienced by parents are increasingly recognized to affect
offspring performance. We set out to investigate the effect of parental larval diet on offspring …

A persistent question in biology is how information from ancestors combines with personal
experiences over the lifetime to affect the developmental trajectories of phenotypic traits. We …

Senescent declines in reproduction and survival are found across the tree of life, but little is
known of the factors causing individual variation in reproductive ageing rates. One …

Interactions between the bluestreak cleaner wrasse Labroides dimidiatus and its client reef
fish are a textbook example of interspecific mutualism. The fact that clients actively visit …

Large numbers of parasites are found in various organs of anuran amphibians, with parasite
intensities thought to modulate the host's Darwinian fitness traits. Interaction between the …

Most of the evidence for the deleterious effects of parasites on performance and body
condition in their hosts results from experimental infection using one species of parasite …

Present research suggests that phenotypic variations and consequent potential differences
in suitability for commercial culture are more likely to occur among genetically diverse …
