Optimal experimental designs for estimating genetic and non-genetic effects underlying infectious disease transmission
2022-01-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Infectious disease spread in populations is controlled by individuals’ susceptibility (propensity to acquire infection), infectivity (propensity to pass on infection to others) and recoverability (propensity to recover/die). Estimating the effects of genetic risk factors on these host epidemiological traits can help reduce disease spread through genetic control strategies. However, the effects...
