Decomposing parasite fitness reveals the basis of specialization in a two‐host, two‐parasite system
The ecological specialization of parasites–whether they can obtain high fitness on very few or very many different host species–is a determining feature of their ecology. In order to properly assess specialization, it is imperative to measure parasite fitness across host species; to understand its o...
