Host density impacts relative fitness of bacteriophage Phi6 genotypes in structured habitats.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Nov 2007

Dennehy John J, Abedon Stephen T, Turner Paul E

Abstract excerpt

Spatially structured environments may impact evolution by restricting population sizes, limiting opportunities for genetic mixis, or weakening selection against deleterious genotypes. When habitat structure impedes dispersal, low-productivity (less virulent) infectious parasites may benefit from their prudent exploitation of local hosts. Here we explored the combined ability for habitat structure and host density...
