The development of molecular tools has dramatically increased our
knowledge of parasite diversity and the vectors that transmit them.
From viruses and protists to arthropods and helminths, each branch
of the Tree of Life offers an insight into significant, yet
cryptic, biodiversity. Alongside this, the studies of host-parasite
interactions and parasitism have influenced many scientific
disciplines, such as biogeography and evolutionary ecology, by
using comparative methods based on phylogenetic information to
unravel shared evolutionary histories. Parasite Diversity and
Diversification brings together two active fields of research,
phylogenetics and evolutionary ecology, to reveal and explain the
patterns of parasite diversity and the diversification of their
hosts. This book will encourage students and researchers in the
fields of ecology and evolution of parasitism, as well as animal
and human health, to integrate phylogenetics into the investigation
of parasitism in evolutionary ecology, health ecology, medicine and
conservation.
