Does host socio-spatial behavior lead to a fine-scale spatial genetic structure in its associated parasites?

Does host socio-spatial behavior lead to a fine-scale spatial genetic structure in its associated parasites?

Gastro-intestinal nematodes, especially Haemonchus contortus, are widespread pathogenic parasites of small ruminants. Studying their spatial genetic structure is as important as studying host genetic structure to fully understand host-parasite interactions and transmission patterns. For parasites ha...
