Host heterozygosity and genotype rarity affect viral dynamics in an avian subspecies complex

Genetic diversity at community, population and individual levels is thought to influence the spread of infectious disease. At the individual level, inbreeding and heterozygosity are associated with increased risk of infection and disease severity. Host genotype rarity may also reduce infection risk...
