Dissecting transmission to understand parasite evolution.
Parasite transmission is a complex, multi-stage process that significantly impacts host-parasite dynamics. Transmission plays a key role in epidemiology and virulence evolution, where it is expected to trade off with virulence. However, the extent to which classical models on virulence-transmission...
