The regulation of Ostertagia ostertagi populations in calves: the effect of past and current experience of infection on proportional establishment and parasite survival.

abstract：:In the context of a broader program dealing with the symbiotic associations of apple snails, we sampled three species that coexist in Lake Regatas (Palermo, Buenos Aires, Argentina). The population of Asolene platae, (but not those of Pomacea canaliculata and Pomacea scalaris) showed trematode larvae (echinocercariae ...
