The Ecological World View
Compartment model for a directly transmitted microparasitic disease such as
syphilis. Each box represents a number of individuals and, in each time step in
which the model is run, individuals move between the boxes at the rates given by
the ...

Diet, Demography, and Disease: Changing Perspectives on Anemia
If pinworm parasitism is viewed as a gauge of microparasitic infectious disease,
then the high correlation of pinworm prevalence in coprolites and porotic
hyperostosis prevalence in crania could implicate microparasitic infections as a
causal ...

Breeding for Disease Resistance in Farm Animals
Models exist for a wide variety of diseases, and those which incorporate host
genetics include a variety of microparasitic (e.g. viral and bacterial) and
macroparasitic (e.g. nematode) infections in cattle, sheep and pigs. The current
state of ...

Modeling Infectious Diseases in Humans and Animals
The models and diseases of this book are focused toward the study of directly
transmitted, microparasitic infectious diseases. As such, this subset represents
only a fraction of the whole field of epidemiological modeling and analysis, but
one in ...

Proceedings: Biological sciences
Infection of Daphnia magna with the microparasitic bacterium Pasteuria ramosa
and the fungus Metschnikowiella biscuspidata, for example, showed strong dose
dependences of host mortality and fecundity, parasite reproduction within the ...

Encyclopedia of Theoretical Ecology
The distinction between micro- and macroparasites has important consequences
in terms of the conceptual and quantitative description of the resulting disease: in
fact, in the case of microparasitic infection, it is generally considered safe to ...
Alan Hastings, Louis J. Gross, 2012

Modeling Infectious Disease Parameters Based on Serological ...
The applications we show in this book are on microparasitic pathogens (with a
strong focus on viruses), causing infectious disease in humans. We provide
model syntax, as well as R code, with which the statistical and modeling analyses
can ...

Population Limitation in Birds
Some parasite species may be present in almost every individual in a population,
while others are present in only a small proportion. Macroparasitic associations
are typically much more stable than microparasitic ones, owing to the persistent ...

Parasitism and Host Behaviour
All other things being equal, revealing handicaps will, according to the Hamilton-
Zuk hypothesis, reveal the presence or absence of microparasitic exposure, and
the extent of macroparasitic exposure. To illustrate the qualitative effects of ...
