Evolution of behavioural and cellular defences against parasitoid wasps in the Drosophila melanogaster subgroup.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 May 2016

Lynch Z R, Schlenke T A, de Roode J C

Abstract excerpt

It may be intuitive to predict that host immune systems will evolve to counter a broad range of potential challenges through simultaneous investment in multiple defences. However, this would require diversion of resources from other traits, such as growth, survival and fecundity. Therefore, ecological immunology theory predicts that hosts will specialize in only a subset of possible defences. We tested this...
