Enriched pathogen diversity under host-type heterogeneity and immune-mediated competition
2017-09-27
Abstract excerpt
Pathogen strains can stably coexist if they specialize on different hosts. Multiple strains can also coexist on a single host through negative frequency-dependent interactions mediated by partial cross-immunity. Understanding pathogen diversity remains a challenge however when both host specificity and cross-immunity are acting and may be functionally linked, as has been proposed for rotavirus, where a single prot...
