Host-pathogen coevolution increases genetic variation in susceptibility to infection

E. M. Duxbury, J. P. Day, D. Maria Vespasiani, Y. Thüringer, I. Tolosana, S. C. Smith, L. Tagliaferri, A. Kamacioglu, I. Lindsley, L. Love, R. Unckless, F. M. Jiggins, B. Longdon

The paper shows that coevolved pathogens increase genetic variation in host susceptibility to infection compared to novel pathogens.

Host shifts result in parallel genetic changes when viruses evolve in closely related species

B. Longdon, J. P. Day, J. M. Alves, S. C. Smith, T. M. Houslay, J. E. McGonigle, L. Tagliaferri, F. M. Jiggins

This study shows that viruses evolving in closely related host species undergo parallel genetic changes, suggesting that adaptation to one host may enhance fitness in related hosts.
