Understanding the Evolution of Emerging Bacterial Pathogens in Response to Host Resistance
… mathematical and ecological framework of the “Trade-off hypothesis”, but many of the assumptions linking pathogen virulence, transmission and replication have been difficult to test or to integrate with our modern understanding of how microbial virulence is manifested on a molecular level. In …

Development, Characterization, and Use of Molecular Tools to Study Immune-Driven Zika Virus Evolution
… in mosquitoes. These results align with the trade-off hypothesis, which states that in a multi-host system, adaptation to one host reduces fitness in the other hosts. When we assessed the neutralization sensitivity of the mutants, we observed that while NS1-T193A was resistant to …

Factores que determinan la virulencia del virus del mosaico del pepino (CMV) en Arabidopsis thaliana
… y transmisión, según la denominada hipótesis del trade-off. La relación entre eficacia de transmisión y virulencia depende del modo de transmisión, en los parásitos transmitidos verticalmente virulencia y transmisión se correlacionan negativamente y en los parásitos transmitidos horizontalmente la …

Towards bioengineered ecosystems: Three studies in invasion biology
… were investigated, by examining two payoff functions plotted as contour surfaces over each pair of parameters. We found that a high burst size, low virus degradation rate, and low host intrinsic death rate always resulted in the hiest payoff to the phage. In contrast, payoffs always …
