• Dietary carotenoid pigments and immune function in a songbird with extensive carotenoid-based plumage coloration (2003, background): “…function (Dufva and Allander, 1995; Figuerola et al., 1999; Merilä et al. 1999; but see Birkhead et al. 1998; Bortolotti et al. 1996; Seutin, 1994; Skarstein et al. 2001; Weatherhead, 1990; Weatherhead et al. 1993; for review, see Møller et al., 1998; Shykoff and Widmer, 1996), and carotenoids…”
• Breeding-related seasonal changes in immunocompetence, health state and condition of the cyprinid fish, Rutilus rutilus, L. (2003, result): “A similar pattern was observed in Arctic charr, where spawning fish had higher intensities of macroparasite infections and smaller spleens than non-spawning or resting fish, but no differences were observed in the densities of lymphocytes or granulocytes (Skarstein et al., 2001).”
• Factors predicting male fertilization success in an external fertilizer (2008, background): “All spawning male Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) develop a red abdominal ornamentation prior to the spawning season that is associated to parasite intensities and immune activity (Liljedal et al. 1999; Skarstein and Folstad 1996; Skarstein et al. 2001).”
