Evolution at experimental epidemic fronts speeds up parasite spread

Manasven Raina, Margherita Allotta, Julien D. Lombard, Jhelam N. Deshpande, Charlene Sanchez, Claire Gougat‐Barbera, Leandro Gammuto, Giulio Petroni, Oliver Kaltz, Giacomo Zilio

This study shows that parasites at the front of an epidemic evolve higher infectivity and lower virulence, which accelerates epidemic spread when host dispersal is limited.

Double Trouble: Multiple infections and the coevolution of virulence and resistance in nested host-parasite populations

Julien D. Lombard, François Massol, Sébastien Lion

The paper analyzes the coevolution of parasite virulence and host resistance under different infection regimes using a nested co-evolutionary model.
