Hybridization between two cestode species and its consequences for intermediate host range

BACKGROUND: Many parasites show an extraordinary degree of host specificity, even though a narrow range of host species reduces the likelihood of successful transmission. In this study, we evaluate the genetic basis of host specificity and transmission success of experimental F(1) hybrids from two c...
