The Genetic Basis of Natural Variation in Drosophila melanogaster Immune Defense against Enterococcus faecalis.

Genes - 22 Feb 2020

Chapman Joanne R, Dowell Maureen A, Chan Rosanna, Unckless Robert L

Abstract excerpt

Dissecting the genetic basis of natural variation in disease response in hosts provides insights into the coevolutionary dynamics of host-pathogen interactions. Here, a genome-wide association study of Drosophila melanogaster survival after infection with the Gram-positive entomopathogenic bacterium Enterococcus faecalis is reported. There was considerable variation in defense against E. faecalis infection among...
