Genetic variation in a host-parasite association: potential for coevolution and frequency-dependent selection.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2001

Carius H J, Little T J, Ebert D

Abstract excerpt

Models of host-parasite coevolution assume the presence of genetic variation for host resistance and parasite infectivity, as well as genotype-specific interactions. We used the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna and its bacterial microparasite Pasteuria ramosa to study genetic variation for host susceptibility and parasite infectivity within each of two populations. We sought to answer the following questions:...
