Pleiotropy promotes the evolution of inducible immune responses in a model of host-pathogen coevolution.
Components of immune systems face significant selective pressure to efficiently use organismal resources, mitigate infection, and resist parasitic manipulation. A theoretically optimal immune defense balances investment in constitutive and inducible immune components depending on the kinds of parasi...
