Evolution of both host resistance and tolerance to an emerging bacterial pathogen

2019-08-14

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Understanding how hosts minimize the cost of emerging infections has fundamental implications for epidemiological dynamics and the evolution of pathogen virulence. Despite this, few experimental studies in natural populations have tested whether, in response to disease emergence, hosts evolve resistance, which reduces pathogen load through immune activation, or tolerance, which limits somatic damages with...
