Does genetic diversity protect host populations from parasites? A meta‐analysis across natural and agricultural systems
If parasites transmit more readily between closely related hosts, then parasite burdens should decrease with increased genetic diversity of host populations. This important hypothesis is often accepted at face value—notorious epidemics of crop monocultures testify to the vulnerability of host popula...
