(a) Individual homozygosity-by-loci (HL) was higher (indicating lower heterozygosity) in BFDV infected hosts (n = 106) than non-infected hosts (n = 118); (b) Compared to uninfected, infected hosts had lower heterozygosity in the Platycercus elegans elegans (n = 53) and P. e. adelaidae (n = 76) subspecies, similar in the Western Slopes (WS) population (n = 65), and lower in P. e. flaveolus (n = 30). (c,d) Among infected hosts, viral load was positively associated with an estimate of genotype rarity (average pairwise relatedness) in all populations including P. e. elegans (red symbols), P. e. flaveolus (yellow), P. e. adelaidae (orange), and the WS population (black). For illustrative purposes lines of best fit for each subspecies were derived using least square regression. Interactions between subspecies and HL or APR were not significant (see methods text). We removed two outliers from (d) for presentation purposes but these were included in statistical analyses. Error bars in panels (a) and (b) represent ± 1 standard error.
