Abstract excerpt
Our work deals with aspects of the genetics and immunology of host-parasite relationships as they influence the development of protective immunity and the phenomenon of coevolution. The aim is to understand parasitism through analyses of host specificity. In earlier studies we examined the inheritance of resistances in mice to infections with Nematospiroides dubius (=Heligmosomoides polygyrus) and established the...
