In this way, viruses may promote host evolution by mediating the transfer of genes among cellular lines, which is an extensive phenomenon in evolution (Gogarten and Townsend 2005); or by promoting recombination of cellular genes (Zeidner et al. 2005).

Because biocontrol organisms are susceptible to potential Allee effects (Fauvergue and Hopper 2009), they may make particularly good models for the study of how different types of Allee effects may constrain or even promote evolution in invasions.
