Environmental temperature variation influences fitness trade-offs and tolerance in a fish-tapeworm association
Abstract Background Increasing temperatures are predicted to strongly impact host-parasite interactions, but empirical tests are rare. Host species that are naturally exposed to a broad temperature spectrum offer the possibility to investigate the effects of elevated temperatures on hosts and parasi...
