Cytokine gene polymorphism and parasite susceptibility in free-living rodents: Importance of non-coding variants.
Associations between genetic variants and susceptibility to infections have long been studied in free-living hosts so as to infer the contemporary evolutionary forces that shape the genetic polymorphisms of immunity genes. Despite extensive studies of proteins interacting with pathogen-derived ligan...
