Immunological Basis for Compatibility in Parasitoid-Host Relationships

1995-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The insect immune system serves as a key defense against attack by parasitoids. Incompatible hosts often eliminate parasitoids by encapsulation, a process in which hemocytes form a multilayered envelope around the invading organism. Capsule formation involves cooperation between one or more classes of hemocytes and is likely mediated by cytokines and adhesion molecules. Reciprocally, parasitoids have evolved a var...
