The Innate Immune Response of Eusocial Hymenopterans to Viral Pathogen Challenge
2022-12-01
Abstract excerpt
In recent years, insect immunology has expanded rapidly in research interest, and available literature has expanded in kind. Insects combat pathogens through a range of behavioral and physiological immune defenses. The need for robust immunity is especially important to eusocial insects; nestmate proximity increases exposure to and transmission of pathogens. Further, eusociality involves cohabitation of thousands...
