Genetic determinants of antiviral immunity in dipteran insects – Compiling the experimental evidence
19 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
The genetic basis of antiviral immunity in dipteran insects is extensively studied in Drosophila melanogaster and advanced technologies for genetic manipulation allow a better characterization of immune responses also in non-model insect species. Especially, immunity in vector mosquitoes is recently in the spotlight, due to the medical impact that these insects have by transmitting viruses and other pathogens....
