Vector preference for hosts differing in infection status: sharpshooter movement and Xylella fastidiosa transmission

2011-10-01

Abstract excerpt

1. Epidemiological theory predicts that vector preference for hosts differing in infection status (i.e. healthy or infected) affects disease dynamics. 2. Numerous studies have documented strong vector preference for or discrimination against infected hosts. However, the significance of these behaviours for pathogen transmission and spread has been poorly described. 3. We conducted a series of choice assays to eval...
