The complex contributions of genetics and nutrition to immunity in Drosophila melanogaster.

PLoS genetics - 1 Mar 2015

Unckless Robert L, Rottschaefer Susan M, Lazzaro Brian P

Abstract excerpt

Both malnutrition and undernutrition can lead to compromised immune defense in a diversity of animals, and "nutritional immunology" has been suggested as a means of understanding immunity and determining strategies for fighting infection. The genetic basis for the effects of diet on immunity, however, has been largely unknown. In the present study, we have conducted genome-wide association mapping in Drosophila...
