Ecological conditions determine extinction risk in co-evolving bacteria-phage populations.

BMC evolutionary biology - 24 Oct 2016

Wright Rosanna C T, Brockhurst Michael A, Harrison Ellie

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Antagonistic coevolution between bacteria and their viral parasites, phage, drives continual evolution of resistance and infectivity traits through recurrent cycles of adaptation and counter-adaptation. Both partners are vulnerable to extinction through failure of adaptation. Environmental conditions may impose unequal abiotic selection pressures on each partner, destabilising the coevolutionary...
