“…Several parasites bring about phenotypic alterations in their hosts that appear to increase their own fitness at the expense of that of their hosts (Poulin, ; Moore, ; Thomas, Adamo, & Moore, ; Cézilly & Perrot‐Minnot, ). Such parasite‐induced phenotypic alterations (PIPAs) can take different forms, through affecting, for instance, the physiology (Plaistow, Troussard, & Cézilly, ; Tain, Perrot‐Minnot, & Cezilly, ; Perrot‐Minnot & Cezilly, ; Guler et al ., ; Kopp et al ., ; Perrot‐Minnot, Maddaleno, & Cézilly, ), reproduction (Bollache, Gambade, & Cézilly, ; Bollache, Rigaud, & Cézilly, ; Rauque & Semenas, ; Bollache, ) or appearance (Lewis Jr, ; Camp & Huizinga, ; Oetinger & Nickol, ; Amato et al ., ; Wesołowska & Wesołowski, ) of infected hosts. However, most studies of PIPA concern the altered behaviour of host species.…”
