Plant life-history and disease susceptibility--the occurrence of Ustilago violacea on different species within the Caryophyllaceae
1993-01-01
Abstract excerpt
1 Simple models of host-pathogen systems suggest that the ranges of potential hosts for pathogens with no transmission across generations and no free-living stages are likely to be restricted to perennial species, especially longer-lived ones. 2 Data from the empirical literature on the relationship between the presence of anther-smut diseases and host life span in the Caryophyllaceae shows that the distribution o...
