Qualitatively different immune response of the bumblebee host, Bombus terrestris, to infection by different genotypes of the trypanosome gut parasite, Crithidia bombi.

Infection, genetics and evolution : journal of molecular epidemiology and evolutionary genetics in infectious diseases - 1 Dec 2013

Barribeau Seth M, Schmid-Hempel Paul

Abstract excerpt

Insects have a complex and highly successful immune system that responds specifically to different types of parasites. Different genotypes of a parasite species can differ in infectivity and virulence; which is important for host-parasite co-evolutionary processes, such as antagonistic, fluctuating selection. Such coevolution obviously requires a genetic basis, but little is known about how hosts immunologically...
