Host phenology can drive the evolution of intermediate virulence strategies in some obligate‐killer parasites

Traditional mechanistic trade‐offs between transmission and virulence are the foundation of nearly all theory on parasite virulence evolution. For obligate‐host killer parasites, evolution toward intermediate virulence depends on a trade‐off between virulence (time to death) and transmission (the nu...
