The cost of host genetic resistance on body condition: Evidence from divergently selected sheep

Abstract Trade‐offs between host resistance to parasites and host growth or reproduction can occur due to allocation of limited available resources between competing demands. To predict potential trade‐offs arising from genetic selection for host resistance, a better understanding of the associated...
