Parasite co-infections show synergistic and antagonistic interactions on growth performance of East African zebu cattle under one year

The co-occurrence of different pathogen species and their simultaneous infection of hosts are common, and may affect host health outcomes. Co-infecting pathogens may interact synergistically (harming the host more) or antagonistically (harming the host less) compared with single infections. Here we...
