Defence heterogeneity in host populations gives rise to pathogen diversity

Host organisms can harbor microbial symbionts that defend them from pathogen infection in addition to the resistance encoded by the host genome. Here, we investigated how variation in defenses, generated from host genetic background and symbiont presence, affects the emergence of pathogen genetic di...
