Background Coinfection has the potential to affect key traits describing the infection dynamics, the severity of the disease and in fine parasite fitness. However, despite its pervasiveness, experimental work investigating how parasites ad…

Disease severity in coinfected hosts: the importance of infection order Open
When hosts are simultaneously infected by different pathogens, the severity of the disease might be altered compared to hosts harboring single infections. The reasons underlying these changes in parasite virulence are manifold. Here, we in…

Infections with soil transmitted helminths (STHs) are highly prevalent in humans living in the intertropical region. While, in most cases, STHs can establish chronic infections, the dynamics of the infection can be altered when other paras…
