Assessment of the dynamics of microparasite infections in genetically homogeneous and heterogeneous populations using a stochastic epidemic model.

Journal of animal science - 1 Aug 2008

Nath M, Woolliams J A, Bishop S C

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this paper was to explore the effect of genetic heterogeneity in host resistance to infection on the population-level risks and outcomes of epidemics. This was done using a stochastic epidemiological model in which the model parameters were assumed to be genetically controlled traits of the host. A finite locus model was explored, with a gene controlling the transmission coefficient (i.e., host...
