Diverging effects of host density and richness across biological scales drive diversity-disease outcomes
Abstract Understanding how biodiversity affects pathogen transmission remains an unresolved question due to the challenges in testing potential mechanisms in natural systems and how these mechanisms vary across biological scales. By quantifying transmission of an entire guild of parasites (larval tr...
