Why have parasites promoting mating success been observed so rarely? ⋮ Host-pathogen dynamics under sterilizing pathogens and fecundity-longevity trade-off in hosts ⋮ Sexually transmitted infections and mate-finding Allee effects ⋮ Diseased social predators ⋮ Impacts of infection avoidance for populations affected by sexually transmitted infections ⋮ Reduced fertility and asymptotics of the logistic model ⋮ Is more better? Higher sterilization of infected hosts need not result in reduced pest population size ⋮ Impacts of Infections and Predation on Dynamics of Sexually Reproducing Populations ⋮ Evolutionary suicide through a non-catastrophic bifurcation: adaptive dynamics of pathogens with frequency-dependent transmission
