Fecal antibody levels as a noninvasive method for measuring immunity to gastrointestinal nematodes in ecological studies
Among‐individual variation in antibody‐associated immunity to gastrointestinal nematode parasites (GIN) is known be associated with life‐history traits and vital rates in wild vertebrate systems. To date, measurement of levels of antibodies against GIN antigens in natural populations has exclusively...
