Dissecting genetic and sex-specific sources of host heterogeneity in pathogen shedding and spread.
Host heterogeneity in disease transmission is widespread but precisely how different host traits drive this heterogeneity remains poorly understood. Part of the difficulty in linking individual variation to population-scale outcomes is that individual hosts can differ on multiple behavioral, physiol...
