If the transmission occurs through local contact of the individuals in a spatially structured population, the evolutionarily stable (ESS) traits of parasite might be quite different from what the classical theory with complete mixing predicts. In this paper, we theoretically study the ESS virulence

Chaos is the likely outcome of the interaction between a parasite and a host with discrete generations, if the parasite's virulence is high and if transmission from one generation to the next is held constant. We studied two alternative routes of transmission-vertical transmission from infecteds to
