Population‐level variation in parasite resistance due to differences in immune initiation and rate of response
Abstract Closely related populations often differ in resistance to a given parasite, as measured by infection success or failure. Yet, the immunological mechanisms of these evolved differences are rarely specified. Does resistance evolve via changes to the host's ability to recognize that an in...
