Epidemiology of a Daphnia-multiparasite system and its implications for the red queen.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Auld Stuart K J R, Hall Spencer R, Duffy Meghan A

Abstract excerpt

The Red Queen hypothesis can explain the maintenance of host and parasite diversity. However, the Red Queen requires genetic specificity for infection risk (i.e., that infection depends on the exact combination of host and parasite genotypes) and strongly virulent effects of infection on host fitness. A European crustacean (Daphnia magna)--bacterium (Pasteuria ramosa) system typifies such specificity and high...
