Use of molecular markers to investigate epidemiology of and host manipulation by the invasive parasite Dicrocoelium dendriticum
Parasite distributions are rapidly expanding, in large part due to human mediated translocations of hosts. Thus, instances of parasite-spread to new hosts are common. Management of these emerging parasites depends on understanding the host-shifts occurring within invasive areas and the pathway of …

OF GERMS AND BUGS: ECOLOGICAL AND GENETIC APPROACHES TO DISENTANGLING SYMBIOSES IN A HONEY BEE PARASITE SYSTEM
… hosts, their resident microbiota, and the parasites and pathogens that share the same ecological niche. These relationships are likely to shift over time and are the product of complex interactions between hosts, symbionts, and the environments that they inhabit, yet we have done little to …

Determining the Influence of Abiotic and Biotic Predictors on Ecological Niche Models
… to have negligible effects on broadscale species distributions and are typically excluded from ecological niche models (ENMs). However, the role such interactions play in shaping species distributions is increasingly recognized, sparking the development of methods for their integration into …
