Co-infection alters population dynamics of infectious disease.

Nature communications - 8 Jan 2015

Susi Hanna, Barrès Benoit, Vale Pedro F, Laine Anna-Liisa

Abstract excerpt

Co-infections by multiple pathogen strains are common in the wild. Theory predicts co-infections to have major consequences for both within- and between-host disease dynamics, but data are currently scarce. Here, using common garden populations of Plantago lanceolata infected by two strains of the pathogen Podosphaera plantaginis, either singly or under co-infection, we find the highest disease prevalence in...
