| parasitism in a community context: trait-mediated interactions with competition and predation. | predation and competition can induce important density- and trait-mediated effects on species, with implications for community stability. however, interactions of these factors with parasitism remain understudied. here we investigate interactions among competition, predation and parasitism by crossing tadpole density (bufo americanus), presence of a caged predator (notophthalmus viridescens), and echinostoma trivolvis trematodes, experimentally partitioning their effects on tadpole exposure and ... | 2010 | 20715608 |
