Migration strategy and pathogen risk: non-breeding distribution drives malaria prevalence in migratory waders
Pathogen exposure has been suggested as one of the factors shaping the myriad of migration strategies observed in nature. Two hypotheses relate migration strategies to pathogen infection: the “avoiding the tropics hypothesis” predicts that pathogen prevalence and transmission increase with decreasin...
