Arenavirus infection correlates with lower survival of its natural rodent host in a long-term capture-mark-recapture study

BACKGROUND: Parasite evolution is hypothesized to select for levels of parasite virulence that maximise transmission success. When host population densities fluctuate, low levels of virulence with limited impact on the host are expected, as this should increase the likelihood of surviving periods of...
