Disease in endangered metapopulations: the importance of alternative hostsJulia Gog
Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, Downing Street, Cambridge CB2 3EJ, UK
Proc Biol Sci 269:671-6. 2002..We use deterministic analytic and stochastic numerical approaches to show that movement between patches will rarely have a negative impact, even when the probability of external infection is low...
A status-based approach to multiple strain dynamicsJ R Gog
Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, UK
J Math Biol 44:169-84. 2002..A complete bifurcation structure is given for this subspace. In contrast to systems previously studied, this system does not exhibit sustained oscillations for any set of parameter values...
Dynamics and selection of many-strain pathogensJulia R Gog
Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, Downing Street, Cambridge CB2 3EJ, United Kingdom
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 99:17209-14. 2002..By contrast, a short infectious period leads to a single dominant cluster at any given time. We show how the speed of cluster replacement depends on the specificity of cross-immunity and on the underlying pathogen mutation rate...
Population dynamics of rapid fixation in cytotoxic T lymphocyte escape mutants of influenza AJulia R Gog
Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, Downing Street, Cambridge CB2 3EJ, United Kingdom
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 100:11143-7. 2003..Furthermore, if a small number of founding cases are responsible for initiating each epidemic, then this effect of rapid mutant fixation is amplified...
