Schematic of the four types of infection treatments analyzed here (Ben‐Ami & Routtu, 2013). The two P. ramosa clones C1 and C14 originated from Russia and Finland, respectively. The three P. ramosa isolates P1, P2, and P4 originated from Germany, England, and Belgium, respectively. Isolates are parasite samples from infected hosts that may contain multiple genotypes (Luijckx et al., 2011). It is likely that parasite genotypes isolated from infected hosts from one location are more genetically related to each other than to another P. ramosa clone or isolate from a geographically distant location. This is why parasite genotypes belonging to the same isolate were marked with different shades of the same color
