The effects of cowpox virus on survival in natural rodent populations: increases and decreases

2002-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Summary The effect of cowpox virus on survival in two rodent hosts was investigated using nearly 4 years of longitudinal data from two sites. We investigated whether an individual's probability of infection influenced the probability of surviving the next month. We also investigated the effect at the population level, examining whether, in addition to seasonal effects, changes in cowpox prevalence explained furthe...
