Chronic disease in the Mojave desert tortoise: Host physiology and recrudescence obscure patterns of pathogen transmission
A seminatural, factorial‐design experiment was used to quantify dynamics of the pathogen Mycoplasma agassizii and upper respiratory tract disease in the Mojave desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii) over 2 years. Groups of initially healthy animals were separated into serologically positive (seroposit...
