    Parasitology 115:317-24. 1997
    ..An infection with S. solidus was also strongly linked with host reproduction: infected females were more likely to bear an egg sac at the end of the experiment than non-infected ones. These egg sacs, however, contained fewer eggs...

    C Wedekind
    Abteilung Verhaltensökologie, Universitat Bern, Hinterkappelen, Switzerland
    Proc Biol Sci 264:1471-9. 1997
    ..The observed preferences would increase heterozygosity in the progeny. They do not seem to aim for more specific MHC combinations...
  3. ncbi Evidence for strategic egg production in a hermaphroditic cestode
    C Wedekind
    Abteilung Verhaltensökologie, Universitat Bern, Hinterkappelen, Switzerland
    Parasitology 117:373-82. 1998
    ..The observed phenotypic plasticity in the reproduction of S. solidus is discussed within 4 evolutionary frameworks: local mate competition adjusted for hermaphrodites, the hermaphrodite's dilemma, bet-hedging, and sib-competition...
