Sex-specific effects of parasites on telomere dynamics in a short-lived passerine—the blue tit

Parasitic infections potentially drive host’s life-histories since they can have detrimental effects on host’s fitness. Telomere dynamics is a candidate mechanism to underlie life-history trade-offs and as such may correlate with observed fitness reduction in infected animals. We examined the relati...
