Quantitative fitness effects of infection in a gene-for-gene system

* It is often assumed that pathogen infection decreases plant fitness, thereby driving the evolution of plant resistance (R) genes. However, the impact of bacterial pathogens on fitness has been shown to be relatively subtle, ranging from positive to negative. * In this study, we focus on the Rps5-m...
