Evolution of host life-history traits in a spatially structured host-parasite system.

The American naturalist - 1 Jan 2012

Débarre F, Lion S, van Baalen M, Gandon S

Abstract excerpt

Most models for the evolution of host defense against parasites assume that host populations are not spatially structured. Yet local interactions and limited dispersal can strongly affect the evolutionary outcome, because they significantly alter epidemiological feedbacks and the spatial genetic structuring of the host and pathogen populations. We provide a general framework to study the evolution of a number of...
