Host genotype and environment affect the trade-off between horizontal and vertical transmission of the parasite Edhazardia aedis.

BMC evolutionary biology - 24 Apr 2018

Zilio Giacomo, Thiévent Kevin, Koella Jacob C

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: If a parasite is able to transmit horizontally or vertically, which transmission mode will it choose? We investigated how the growth conditions and the genotype of the mosquito Aedes aegypti affect the transmission mode of the parasite Edhazardia aedis. RESULTS: In poor conditions the parasites were more likely to be transmitted horizontally, whereas in favourable conditions they were more likely to...
