The impact of host metapopulation structure on short-term evolutionary rescue in the face of a novel pathogenic threat

While most evolutionary studies of host-pathogen dynamics consider pathogen evolution alone or host-pathogen coevolution, there is evidence that hosts can evolve more rapidly than their pathogen during initial outbreaks after disease introduction, e.g. evolutionary rescue in the short term. In these...
