The adaptive dynamics of the evolution of host resistance to indirectly transmitted microparasites.

Mathematical biosciences - 1 Dec 2007

Giafis Angela, Bowers Roger G

Abstract excerpt

We use adaptive dynamics and pairwise invadability plots to examine the evolutionary dynamics of host resistance to microparasitic infection transmitted indirectly via free stages. We investigate trade-offs between pathogen transmission rate and intrinsic growth rate. Adaptive dynamics distinguishes various evolutionary outcomes associated with repellors, attractors or branching points. We find criteria...
