Can breeders prevent pathogen adaptation when selecting for increased resistance to infectious diseases?
Abstract Background Recent research shows that genetic selection has high potential to reduce the prevalence of infectious diseases in livestock. However, like all interventions that target infectious diseases, genetic selection of livestock can exert selection pressure on pathogen populations. Such...
