Poor resource quality lowers transmission potential by changing foraging behaviour

Resource quality can have conflicting effects on the spread of disease. High‐quality resources could hinder disease spread by promoting host immune function. Alternatively, high‐quality food might enhance the spread of disease through other traits of hosts or parasites. Thus, to assess how resource...
