Coinfection with a virus constrains within-host infection load but increases transmission potential of a highly virulent fungal plant pathogen
2021-09-25
Abstract excerpt
The trade-off between within-host infection load and transmission to new hosts is predicted to constrain pathogen evolution, and to maintain polymorphism in pathogen populations. The life-history stages and their correlations that underpin infection development may change under coinfection with other parasites as they compete for the same limited host resources. Cross-kingdom interactions are common among pathogen...
