Evolution of a polydnavirus gene in relation to parasitoid-host species immune resistance.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Dupas Stéphane, Gitau Catherine Wanjiru, Branca Antoine, Le Rü Bruno Pierre, Silvain Jean-François

Abstract excerpt

CrV1, a polydisperse DNA virus (polydnavirus or PDV) gene contributes to the suppression of host immunity in Cotesia genus parasitoids. Its molecular evolution was analyzed in relation to levels of resistance in the sympatric host species. Natural selection for nonsynonymous substitutions (positive Darwinian selection) was observed at specific amino acid sites among CrV1 variants; particularly, between parasitoid...
