Abstract: It is now widely established that multicellular organisms are not autonomous entities, but rather 'holobionts' composed of the host plus all of its commensal and mutualistic microorganisms, as well as a diversity of parasite taxa (viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoans and metazoans). Extensive research has demonstrated the considerable importance of parasites in influencing the phenotype of their hosts. These studies have also demonstrated that the ecoevolutionary dynamics of animals (hosts) and symbionts (encompassing all types of symbioses) are inextricably linked with reciprocal interactions.
