Microbe-mediated host defence drives the evolution of reduced pathogen virulence
Microbes that protect their hosts from pathogens are widespread in nature and are attractive disease control agents. Given that pathogen adaptation to barriers against infection can drive changes in pathogen virulence, ‘defensive microbes' may shape disease severity. Here we show that co-evolvi...
