A Multi-scale Analysis of Influenza A Virus Fitness Trade-offs due to Temperature-dependent Virus Persistence

Abstract: Successful replication within an infected host and successful transmission between hosts are key to the continued spread of most pathogens. Competing selection pressures exerted at these different scales can lead to evolutionary trade-offs between the determinants of fitness within and between hosts. Here, we examine such a trade-off in the context of influenza A viruses and the differential pressures exerted by temperature-dependent virus persistence. For a panel of avian influenza A virus strains, we find ev… Show more

“…As previously found, there is a negative linear correlation for both log(a) versus log(g) and the relative ranks of a and g. The trade-off exists independent of the assumption about the error structure made when fitting the data. The combination of results in figure 5 and those previously reported in [31] suggests strongly that there is indeed a trade-off for virus decay at different temperatures, with some strains optimizing persistence at low temperatures, while others fare relatively better at high temperatures.…”

“…We find-perhaps surprisingly-little evidence for a trade-off of this phenotype between the environmental and the withinhost scales. Instead, confirming findings from a previous study [31], we find that a temperature-dependent trade-off exists on a single scale, namely the environmental stage.…”

“…Some studies have considered transmission to be linked to the instantaneous viral load [27,28], whereas others have instead explored the total area under the curve (AUC) [29][30][31]. Among those models assuming transmission to scale with total virus load (AUC), alternative assumptions include transmission scaling with viral load on a logarithmic scale [16,32] or through a linear relationship [16].…”
