Poor maternal environment enhances offspring disease resistance in an invertebrate.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Dec 2005

Mitchell Suzanne E, Read Andrew F

Abstract excerpt

Natural populations vary tremendously in their susceptibility to infectious disease agents. The factors (environmental or genetic) that underlie this variation determine the impact of disease on host population dynamics and evolution, and affect our capacity to contain disease outbreaks and to enhance resistance in agricultural animals and disease vectors. Here, we show that changes in the environmental...
