Decoding host responses: How a freshwater invertebrate defends against a parasitic bacterium

2025-03-29

Abstract excerpt

Host-parasite interactions drive coevolutionary dynamics, often leading to reciprocal adaptations between hosts and parasites, a process known as the Red Queen arms race. While the molecular mechanisms underlying vertebrate and insect immune responses have been studied extensively, those of aquatic invertebrates remain unexplored, despite their critical role in ecosystem stability and aquaculture. Here, we use the...
