Genetic variability and viral seroconversion in an outcrossing vertebrate population.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Jan 2011

Gompper Matthew E, Monello Ryan J, Eggert Lori S

Abstract excerpt

Inverse correlations between genetic variability and parasitism are important concerns for conservation biologists. We examined correlations between neutral genetic variability and the presence of antibodies to canine distemper virus (CDV) and feline parvovirus (FPV) in a free-ranging population of raccoons. Over 3 years there was a strong relationship between age and seroprevalence rates. Most young animals were...
