Sympatric versus allopatric evolutionary contexts shape differential immune response in <i>Biomphalaria / Schistosoma</i> interaction
2018-07-26
Abstract excerpt
Selective pressures between hosts and their parasites can result in reciprocal evolution or adaptation of specific life history traits. Local adaptation of resident hosts and parasites should lead to increase parasite infectivity/virulence (higher compatibility) when infecting hosts from the same location (in sympatry) than from a foreign location (in allopatry). Analysis of geographic variations in compatibility...
