Tricks of the puppet masters: morphological adaptations to the interaction with nervous system underlying host manipulation by rhizocephalan barnacle Polyascus polygeneus
BACKGROUND: Rhizocephalan interaction with their decapod hosts is a superb example of host manipulation. These parasites are able to alter the host’s physiology and behavior. Host-parasite interaction is performed, presumably, via special modified rootlets invading the ventral ganglions. METHODS: In...
