Risky business: influence of eye flukes on use of risky microhabitats and conspicuousness of a fish host
Abstract
A prerequisite for a parasitic manipulation to be considered adaptive is that it confers a fitness benefit to the parasite, such as increased transmission to another host. These manipulations can involve alterations to a wide range of host phenotypic traits, including microhabitat choice.
