Predation on Multiple Trophic Levels Shapes the Evolution of Pathogen Virulence
The pathogen virulence is traditionally thought to co-evolve as a result of reciprocal selection with its host organism. In natural communities, pathogens and hosts are typically embedded within a web of interactions with other species, which could affect indirectly the pathogen virulence and host i...
