Monogeneans in intergeneric hybrids of leuciscid fish: Is parasite infection driven by hybrid heterosis, genetic incompatibilities, or host-parasite coevolutionary interactions?
BackgroundSeveral hypotheses have been proposed to explain parasite infection in parental species and their hybrids. Hybrid heterosis is generally...
