Antagonistic coevolution with parasites increases the cost of host deleterious mutations.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Jan 2006

Buckling Angus, Wei Yan, Massey Ruth C, Brockhurst Michael A, Hochberg Michael E

Abstract excerpt

The fitness consequences of deleterious mutations are sometimes greater when individuals are parasitized, hence parasites may result in the more rapid purging of deleterious mutations from host populations. The significance of host deleterious mutations when hosts and parasites antagonistically coevolve (reciprocal evolution of host resistance and parasite infectivity) has not previously been experimentally...
