Eco-evolutionary feedbacks shape the evolution of constitutive and inducible defences

2023-04-14

Abstract excerpt

Organisms have evolved a range of constitutive (always active) and inducible (elicited by parasites) defence mechanisms, but we have limited understanding of what drives the evolution of these orthogonal defence strategies. Bacteria and their phages offer a tractable system to study this: bacteria can acquire constitutive resistance by mutation of the phage receptor (surface mutation, sm ) or induced resistance t...
