Sex-dependent effects of infection on guppy reproductive fitness and offspring parasite resistance

I. L. G. Weiler, R. D. Kramp, F. Rovenolt, J. F. Stephenson

This study investigates how infection affects reproductive fitness and offspring parasite resistance in guppies, finding sex-dependent effects on offspring age and parasite resistance.

Associating with kin selects against disease tolerance

J. C. Walsman, M. Lambe, J. F. Stephenson

The paper models how kin association influences the evolution of resistance and tolerance in hosts, finding that weak kin ties can promote altruistic resistance in infected hosts, reducing disease.

Social hosts evade predation but have deadlier parasites

J. C. Walsman, M. J. Janecka, D. R. Clark, R. D. Kramp, F. Rovenolt, R. Patrick, R. S. Mohammed, M. Konczal, C. E. Cressler, J. F. Stephenson

The paper shows that predator-induced host social grouping increases parasite transmission, favoring more virulent parasites, and finds that high predation guppy populations have more virulent Gyrodactyus spp. parasites.
