The paper examines how thermal variability influences host-parasite defense strategies and infection dynamics, showing temperature variability can reduce infection prevalence but promote tolerance, increasing net prevalence.

The paper examines how purging and admixture affect genetic load in an invasive guppy population, finding that strongly and weakly deleterious mutations respond differently to these processes.

This study shows that host genetics and the skin microbiome independently predict parasite resistance in Trinidadian guppies, with the microbiome explaining as much variation in infection severity as genetic selection lines.

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