Natural Resistance to Animal Parasites

  • Chapter
Book cover Immunobiology of Parasites and Parasitic Infections

Part of the book series: Contemporary Topics in Immunobiology ((CTI,volume 12))

Abstract

There exists great variation in the degree to which parasites are fastidious with respect to their hosts. This is exemplified by the expression “host range,” a descriptive feature of a given parasite used to characterize the variety of species that can be infected by that parasite. Many parasites are highly selective (i.e., specific), their range of hosts being limited to one, or a few related, species. These are believed to be well-adapted parasites having settled on a host that is optimum for their welfare. Other parasites have a broad host range and will survive, if not thrive, in a variety of hosts.
