The relative importance of parasitic infections, ecoimmunological dynamics and genetic factors in determining host condition in a wild population of the house mouse, Mus musculus domesticus
The factors which cause changes in condition and immune state are likely to be different in wild animals compared to inbred laboratory strains, as a result of various interacting ecological and environmental pressures not typically found under lab conditions. These include parasitic coinfection, gen...
