Coevolutionary cycling in allele frequencies and the evolution of virulence

2025-05-27

Abstract excerpt

Coevolutionary cycling in allele frequencies due to negative frequency-dependent selection—sometimes referred to as Red Queen Dynamics—is a key potential outcome of host-parasite coevolution. While many theoretical studies have focused on understanding the consequences of coevolutionary cycling for the evolution of sex and recombination, little is known about the impact of coevolutionary cycling on the evolution o...
