      Johansen, Ida Beitnes; Henriksen, Eirik Haugstvedt; Shaw, Jenny Carolyn; Mayer, Ian; Amundsen, Per-Arne; Øverli, Øyvind (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-23)
      Conspicuous carotenoid ornamentation is considered a signal of individual “quality” and one of the most intensely studied traits found to co-vary with parasitism. Since it has been suggested that only “high quality” individuals have enough resources to express excessive sexual ornaments and resist parasites, current theory struggles to explain cases where the brightest individuals carry the most ...

    • High parasite diversity in the amphipod Gammarus lacustris in a subarctic lake

      Amphipods are often key species in aquatic food webs due to their functional roles in the ecosystem and as intermediate hosts for trophically transmitted parasites. Amphipods can also host many parasite species, yet few studies address the entire parasite community of a gammarid population, precluding a more dynamic understanding of the food web. We set out to identify and quantify the parasite ...
