Lay Summary: Competition often occurs among diverse parasites within a single host, but control efforts could change its strength. We examined how the interplay between competition and control could shape the evolution of parasite traits like drug resistance and disease severity.
竞争常常在单个宿主体内的多种寄生虫之间发生,但防控措施可能会改变其强度。我们研究了竞争与防控之间的相互作用如何影响诸如耐药性和疾病严重程度等寄生虫特征的进化。
