Phenotypic Variation in Overwinter Environmental Transmission of a Baculovirus and the Cost of Virulence.

The American naturalist - 1 Dec 2015

Fleming-Davies Arietta E, Dwyer Greg

Abstract excerpt

A pathogen's ability to persist in the environment is an ecologically important trait, and variation in this trait may promote coexistence of different pathogen strains. We asked whether naturally occurring isolates of the baculovirus that infects gypsy moth larvae varied in their overwinter environmental transmission and whether this variation was consistent with a trade-off or an upper limit to virulence that...
