To what extent can adaptive evolution rescue a population from extinction following the introduction of a pathogen? Searle and Christie (2021) show how evolutionary rescues in host-pathogen systems may differ from those that occur in response to abiotic changes. In particular, they pinpoint how epidemiological feedback and pathogen evolution, inherent to host-pathogen systems, can greatly affect the likelihood of rescue.
