The evolution of disease resistance and tolerance in spatially structured populations

Abstract: The ubiquitous challenge from infectious disease has prompted the evolution of diverse host defenses, which can be divided into two broad classes: resistance (which limits pathogen growth and infection) and tolerance (which does not limit infection, but instead reduces or offsets its negative fitness consequences). Resistance and tolerance may provide equivalent short-term benefits, but have fundamentally different epidemiological consequences and thus exhibit different evolutionary behaviors. We consider the … Show more

“…3). Therefore, the protective activity of K165 against V. dahliae is based on the activation of plant resistance rather than tolerance mechanisms, since tolerance does not limit infection but, instead, reduces or offsets its negative consequences on fitness (Horns and Hood 2012). The fls2 mutants exhibited high relative levels of V. dahliae DNA in agreement with the observed disease severity recordings at both time points, in contrast to efr-1, in which lower levels of the pathogen were observed relative to Col-0 ( Fig.…”

“…Frank [32] used an inclusive-fitness model to show that higher relatedness selects for increased investment in resistance (avoidance of infection, in this case, through induction of immunity). Such resistance strategies may include altruistic, disease-related responses and behaviour by human hosts, which reduce pathogen transmission to kin [25,51,52]. Relatedness structure is also predicted to restrict the evolution of tolerance [51,52], in part, because tolerant individuals remain infectious.…”

“…Such resistance strategies may include altruistic, disease-related responses and behaviour by human hosts, which reduce pathogen transmission to kin [25,51,52]. Relatedness structure is also predicted to restrict the evolution of tolerance [51,52], in part, because tolerant individuals remain infectious. Such effects may be especially important owing to widespread trade-offs of investment in immune functions with investment in growth and reproduction, the usual two contexts for consideration of maximizing inclusive fitness.…”

“…Ecologically, the high burdens that HOSP maintain may increase the frequency of parasite exposure for other avian hosts in the community (Restif and Koella 2004;Horns and Hood 2012), an outcome termed parasite spillback (Kelly et al 2009). As HOSP shed many coccidia but experience minimal health impacts themselves, spillback may enable HOSP to outcompete some native hosts (Kelly et al 2009).…”
