Host-parasite coevolution is expected to present a strong force in nature, with interactions between hosts and parasites leading to rapid reciprocal adaptations. In recent years several coevolution experiments have been carried out, testing predictions on the dynamics and outcomes of coevolutionary processes. One aspect of host and parasite ecology that has received little attention in host-parasite coevolution experiments is the ability of both parties to shape their environment. A number of parasites are able to produce transmissive stages that persist in the environment across host generations and many host species are able to manipulate their environment through secretion of antimicrobial compounds or hygienic behaviours. The main objec...
