Model of bacterial toxin-dependent pathogenesis explains infective dose [Ecology]

The initial amount of pathogens required to start an infection within a susceptible host is called the infective dose and is known to vary to a large extent between different pathogen species. We investigate the hypothesis that the differences in infective doses are explained by the mode of action in...
