Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) contribute to the immune defenses of many vertebrates, including amphibians. As larvae, amphibians are often exposed to the infectious stages of trematode parasites,… Expand
Community disassembly and disease: realistic—but not randomized—biodiversity losses enhance parasite transmission
