Temperature-mediated patterns of local adaptation in a natural plant-pathogen metapopulation.

Abstract excerpt

There have been numerous investigations of parasite local adaptation, a phenomenon important from the perspectives of both basic and applied evolutionary ecology. Recent work has demonstrated that temperature has striking effects on parasite performance by mediating trade-offs in parasite life history and through genotype x environment interactions. To test whether parasite local adaptation is mediated by...
