Selection on plastic adherence leads to hyper-multicellular strains and incidental virulence in the budding yeast

2022-06-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Many disease-causing microbes are not obligate pathogens; rather, they are environmental microbes taking advantage of an ecological opportunity. The existence of microbes that are not normally pathogenic, yet are well-suited to host exploitation, is an evolutionary paradox. One hypothesis posits that selection in the environment may favor traits that incidentally lead to pathogenicity and virulen...
