Defense Heterogeneity in Host Populations Gives Rise to Pathogen Diversity.

The American naturalist - 1 Oct 2024

Hoang Kim L, Read Timothy D, King Kayla C

Abstract excerpt

AbstractHost organisms can harbor microbial symbionts that defend them from pathogen infection in addition to the resistance encoded by the host genome. Here, we investigated how variation in defenses, generated from host genetic background and symbiont presence, affects the emergence of pathogen genetic diversity across evolutionary time. We passaged the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa through...
