Step-specific adaptation and trade-off over the course of an infection by GASP-mutation small colony variants

2020-05-31

Abstract excerpt

During an infection, parasites face a succession of challenges, each decisive for disease outcome. The diversity of challenges requires a series of parasite adaptations to successfully multiply and transmit from host to host. Thus, the pathogen genotypes which succeed during one step might be counter-selected in later stages of the infection. Using the bacteria Xenorhabdus nematophila and adult Drosophila melano...
