Parasites and stable isotopes: a comparative analysis of isotopic discrimination in parasitic trophic interactions Thieltges, D. W., Goedknegt, M. A., O’Dwyer, K., Senior, A. M., Kamiya, T. Oikos, 00: 1-11, doi: 0.1111/oik.06086 PDF Stable isotopes are widely used to identify trophic interactions and to determine trophic positions of organisms in food webs. Comparative studies have provided general […]

Lessepsian migration and parasitism: richness, prevalence and intensity of parasites in the invasive fish Sphyraena chrysotaenia compared to its native congener Sphyraena sphyraena in Tunisian coastal waters Boussellaa, W., Neifar, L., Goedknegt, M. A., Thieltges, D. W. PeerJ 6:e5558, doi:10.7717/peerj.5558 (2018) Background. Parasites can play various roles in the invasion of non-native species, but these are still understudied in marine ecosystems. This […]
COCKLES newsletter #1
The first Newsletter of the COCKLES project. I did not start my post-doc position yet when the newsletter came out, but it is nice to read what the goals of the project are.

Impact of the invasive parasitic copepod Mytilicola orientalis on native blue mussels Mytilus edulis in the western European Wadden Sea Goedknegt, M. A., Bedolfe, S., Drent, J., van der Meer, J., Thielges, D.W. Marine Biology Research 14(5): 497-507, doi:10.1080/17451000.2018.1442579 PDF Invasive species can indirectly affect native species by modifying parasite-host dynamics and disease occurrence. This scenario […]
