Pathogens in space: Advancing understanding of pathogen dynamics and disease ecology through landscape genetics 2018-07-28 .txt text/plain 7498 343 32 Our review emphasizes the expanding utility of landscape genetic methods available for elucidating key pathogen dynamics (particularly transmission and spread) and also how landscape genetic studies of pathogens can provide insight into host population dynamics. We excluded reviews (n = 15), meeting abstracts (n = 1), purely methods-based papers (n = 6) and articles that identified as or mentioned landscape genetics but did not sufficiently incorporate landscape factors or genetic data into the study (n = 32), studies that referred to any of our pathogen-related search terms without it being a primary motivation for the study (n = 21), and studies that used words like "transmit" or "parasite" outside of the context of infectious agents (such as the transmission of behaviours) (n = 6). Spatial variation in pathogen prevalence or infection risk can be represented in much the same way as any landscape variable , making spatial data relating to presence of an infectious agent well-suited for incorporation into host landscape genetic models. ./cache/cord-348841-qxkmngyk.txt ./txt/cord-348841-qxkmngyk.txt
