Food provisioning influences disease risk and outcome in animal populations two ways. On the one hand, unrestricted food supply improves physiological condition of host lowers its susceptibility to infectious disease, reflecting a trade-off between immunity other fitness-related functions. scarcity limits resources available pathogen slows growth metabolism on which depends proliferate. Here, we investigated how availability, rate energetic reserves drive viral affecting an ecologically...
Abstract We tested the hypothesis that environmental trophic conditions prominent during growing period (nurture conditions) can modify differing physiological profiles between fast (F)- and slow (S)-growing juveniles of mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis . Approximately 200 individuals were fed a high organic content diet dosed below pseudofaeces threshold (BP), whereas another low above (AP), forcing them to maintain continuous production pseudofaeces. After 3 months, F S in each rearing...
