The transcriptional response of Drosophila melanogaster to infection with the sigma virus (Rhabdoviridae).

Bacterial and fungal infections induce a potent immune response in Drosophila melanogaster, but it is unclear whether viral infections induce an antiviral immune response. Using microarrays, we examined the changes in gene expression in Drosophila that occur in response to infection with the sigma v...
