The influence of sex, size and weight of the Indian house rat (Rattus rattus) on concurrent liver infections with Hydatigera balaniceps (Hall), H. laticollis (Rudolphi) and H. parva (Baer) has been discussed. A significant inverse relationship was recorded between cestode infection and rat size. Parasitization index and mean worm burden-host weight ratio decreased with increase in rodent weight.
已讨论了印度家鼠(褐家鼠)的性别、大小和体重对其同时感染巴氏泡尾绦虫(霍尔)、宽颈泡尾绦虫(鲁道夫)和微小泡尾绦虫(贝尔)的影响。已记录到绦虫感染与鼠的大小之间存在显著的负相关关系。随着啮齿动物体重的增加,寄生虫感染指数和平均虫负荷-宿主重量比降低。
