Transcriptomic landscape reveals immunity related trade-offs in an invertebrate-fungal host-parasite system

2025-04-02

Abstract excerpt

By exploiting host resources, parasites impose significant fitness costs onto their hosts, thereby affecting their population dynamics. Hosts, in turn, employ a series of mechanism to resist or tolerate parasitic infections. Unlike vertebrates, which possess a sophisticated immune system, invertebrates rely solely on innate immunity to combat pathogens. Despite over 50 years of research, the molecular basis of inn...
