A community analysis approach to parasite transmission in multi-host systems: Assemblages of small mammal prey and Echinococcus multilocularis in an urban area in North America
BACKGROUND: Echinococcus multilocularis (Em) is a parasite with a complex life cycle whose transmission involves a predator-prey interaction. Accidental ingestion of Em eggs by humans may cause alveolar echinococcosis, a potentially fatal disease. Although previous research suggested that the compos...
