Evolution of virulence in a plant host-pathogen metapopulation.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 14 Mar 2003

Thrall Peter H, Burdon Jeremy J

Abstract excerpt

In a wild plant-pathogen system, host resistance and pathogen virulence varied markedly among local populations. Broadly virulent pathogens occurred more frequently in highly resistant host populations, whereas avirulent pathogens dominated susceptible populations. Experimental inoculations indic...
