An evolutionary trade‐off between parasite virulence and dispersal at experimental invasion fronts

14 Feb 2021

Abstract excerpt

Exploitative parasites are predicted to evolve in highly connected populations or in expanding epidemics. However, many parasites rely on host dispersal to reach new populations, potentially causing conflict between local transmission and global spread. We performed experimental range expansions in interconnected microcosms of the protozoan Paramecium caudatum, allowing natural dispersal of hosts infected with...
