Abstract excerpt

Understanding how diversity is maintained in natural populations is a major goal of evolutionary biology. In coevolving hosts and parasites, negative frequency-dependent selection is one mechanism predicted to maintain genetic variation. While much is known about host diversity, parasite diversity remains understudied in coevolutionary research. Here, we survey natural diversity in a bacterial parasite by...
