Genetic variation for maternal effects on parasite susceptibility.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Nov 2011

Stjernman M, Little T J

Abstract excerpt

The expression of infectious disease is increasingly recognized to be impacted by maternal effects, where the environmental conditions experienced by mothers alter resistance to infection in offspring, independent of heritability. Here, we studied how maternal effects (high or low food availability to mothers) mediated the resistance of the crustacean Daphnia magna to its bacterial parasite Pasteuria ramosa. We...
