Abstract:
In this paper we wish to develop three themes, each having to do with evolutionary aspects of associations between hosts and parasites (with parasite defined broadly, to include viruses, bacteria and protozoans, along with the more conventionally defined helminth and arthropod parasites). The three themes are: the evolution of virulence; the population dynamics and population genetics of host–parasite associations; and invasions by, or ‘emergence’ of, new parasites.

Abstract:
In many host populations, one of the most striking differences among hosts is their age. While parasite prevalence differences in relation to host age are well known, little is known on how host age impacts ecological and evolutionary dynamics of diseases. Using two clones of the water flea Daphnia magna and two clones of its bacterial parasite Pasteuria ramosa , we examined how host age at exposure influences within-host parasite competition and virulence. We found that multiply-exposed hosts were more susceptible to infection and suffered higher mortality than singly-exposed hosts. Hosts old

The papers included in this thesis examine the host–parasite relationship in small and large animals following experimental challenges with Neospora caninum. This apicomplexan parasite is a major cause of abortion and reproductive losses in cattle worldwide. Economic and welfare issues make the development of a vaccine against the transplacental transmission of Neospora highly desirable.

Abstract:
It is a truth universally acknowledged that polymorphism at host immunity loci and corresponding parasite antigenicity loci, maintained by coevolution in pathosystems, is common and can persist for millions of years. Such polymorphisms and how they persist or break down are both fundamentally interesting and important for human health and agriculture. Examples include the major histocompatibility complex in vertebrates and the gene-for-gene (GFG) relationships in plants and their parasites. GFG systems are well-understood genetically and an important source of disease resistance for plant bree

Parasitism is one of the most common ways of living and it has arised in many taxa. Parasites feed and live inside or on their hosts resulting in both long and short term consequences for the host.

Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan capable of replicating sexually in cats and asexually in other warm-blooded animals.

A cellular automata model is developed to demonstrate the dynamics of the parasite, where each cell follows the same set of rules for each discrete time-step.

Broomrapes (Orobanche/Phelipanchespp.) are holo parasitic plants that subsist on the roots of a variety of agricultural crops and cause severe losses to the yield quality and quantity. Effective methods for controlling parasitic weeds are scarce, with only a few known cases of genetic resistance. In the current study, we proposed an improved strategy for the control of parasitic weeds based on trans-specific gene-silencing of three parasite genes at once. We used two strategies to express dsRNA containing selected sequences of three Phelipancheaegyptiacagenes PaACS, PaM6PR and PaPrx1 (pma): tr

Seeds of the root parasitic plants of the genus Orobanchegerminate specifically in response to host-derived germination signals, which enables parasites to detect and attack preferred hosts. The best characterized class of germination stimulants is the strigolactones (SL), although some species respond to sesquiterpene lactones such as dehydrocostuslactone (DCL). Despite great progress in characterizing the SL signaling system in plants, the mechanism(s) by which parasite species detect specific compounds remains poorly understood.
