Parasites and stable isotopes: a comparative analysis of isotopic discrimination in parasitic trophic interactions

Stable isotopes are widely used to identify trophic interactions and to determine trophic positions of organisms in food webs. Comparative studies have provided general insights into the variation in isotopic composition between consumers and their diet (discrimination factors) in predator–prey and...
