Successfully resisting a pathogen is rarely costly in Daphnia magna.

BMC evolutionary biology - 17 Nov 2010

Labbé Pierrick, Vale Pedro F, Little Tom J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A central hypothesis in the evolutionary ecology of parasitism is that trade-offs exist between resistance to parasites and other fitness components such as fecundity, growth, survival, and predator avoidance, or resistance to other parasites. These trade-offs are called costs of resistance. These costs fall into two broad categories: constitutive costs of resistance, which arise from a negative...
