Interactions among bacterial strains and fluke genotypes shape virulence of co-infection.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Dec 2015

Abstract excerpt

Most studies of virulence of infection focus on pairwise host-parasite interactions. However, hosts are almost universally co-infected by several parasite strains and/or genotypes of the same or different species. While theory predicts that co-infection favours more virulent parasite genotypes through intensified competition for host resources, knowledge of the effects of genotype by genotype (G × G) interactions...
