Genotype and sex-based host variation in behaviour and susceptibility drives population disease dynamics.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 11 Nov 2020

White Lauren A, Siva-Jothy Jonathon A, Craft Meggan E, Vale Pedro F

Abstract excerpt

Host heterogeneity in pathogen transmission is widespread and presents a major hurdle to predicting and minimizing disease outbreaks. Using Drosophila melanogaster infected with Drosophila C virus as a model system, we integrated experimental measurements of social aggregation, virus shedding, and disease-induced mortality from different genetic lines and sexes into a disease modelling framework. The...
