Parallel Patterns of Increased Virulence in a Recently Emerged Wildlife Pathogen

The evolution of higher virulence during disease emergence has been predicted by theoretical models, but empirical studies of short-term virulence evolution following pathogen emergence remain rare. Here we examine patterns of short-term virulence evolution using archived isolates of the bacterium M...
