ON THE EVOLUTIONARY DYNAMICS OF PATHOGENS WITH DIRECT AND ENVIRONMENTAL TRANSMISSION
5 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
A number of ecologically and economically important pathogens exhibit a complex transmission dynamics that involves distinct transmission modes. In this paper, we study the evolutionary dynamics of pathogens for which transmission includes direct host-to-host as well as indirect environmental transmission. Different routes of infection spread require specific adaptations of the parasite, which may result in...
