Emerging prion disease drives host selection in a wildlife population.

Ecological applications : a publication of the Ecological Society of America - 1 Apr 2012

Abstract excerpt

Infectious diseases are increasingly recognized as an important force driving population dynamics, conservation biology, and natural selection in wildlife populations. Infectious agents have been implicated in the decline of small or endangered populations and may act to constrain population size, distribution, growth rates, or migration patterns. Further, diseases may provide selective pressures that shape the...
