Abstract excerpt
Coevolutionary arms races between hosts and parasites would not occur without genetic variation for traits involved in the outcome of parasitism. Genetic variations in resistance and virulence have only rarely been described in pairwise host-parasitoid interactions and have never been analysed in multi-species interactions, in contrast to well-characterized plant-pathogen interactions. This paper reports genetic...
