| Özet |
| With a single circulating tick-borne virus, the basic reproduction number incorporates contributions from tick-to-tick, tick-to-host, and host-to-tick transmission routes. With two different circulating viral strains, resident and invasive, and under the assumption that tick-to-tick is the only transmission route in a tick population, the invasion reproduction number depends on whether the model system of ordinary differential equations possesses the property of neutrality. We show that a simple model, with two populations of ticks infected with one strain, resident or invasive, and one population of co-infected ticks, does not have Alizon's neutrality property. We consider alternative mathematical models that are capable of representing the invasion potential of a novel strain by including populations of ticks dually infected with the same strain (resident or invasive). The invasion reproduction number is analysed with the next-generation method and via numerical simulations. |
