Abstract
⺠11KT and spiggin titres correlate with reproductive behavior in sticklebacks. ⺠Reproductive ability of parasitized male stickleback depends on endocrine phenotype. ⺠Low 11KT and spiggin titres associated with heavy Schistocephalus infections. ⺠Results do not support endocrine disruption as a mechanism .⺠Infections probably reduce host reproduction through nutrient theft.
