Density-dependent effects on the weight of female Ascaris lumbricoides infections of humans and its impact on patterns of egg production

BACKGROUND: Ascaris lumbricoides exhibits density-dependent egg production, a process which has a marked impact on both the transmission dynamics and the stability of the parasite population. Evidence suggests that the egg production of female Ascaris is also associated with the size of the worm. If...
