Transgenerational plasticity alters parasite fitness in changing environments.

Results There was no effect of rearing temperature but a marginally significant effect of current temperature on infection prevalence: infections carried out at warmer temperatures led to a marginally lower infection prevalence than cooler temperatures ( χ 2 = 3.29, P = 0.070), regardless of whether the spores were reared at cooler or warmer temperature ( Fig. 1A ; χ 2 = 0.13, P = 0.721).
