Multiscale Immune Selection and the Transmission-Diversity Feedback in Antigenically Diverse Pathogen Systems
Antigenic diversity is commonly used by pathogens to enhance their transmission success. Within-host clonal antigenic variation helps to maintain long infectious periods, whereas high levels of allelic diversity at the population level significantly expand the pool of susceptible individuals. Divers...
