Parallel and costly changes to cellular immunity underlie the evolution of parasitoid resistance in three Drosophila species.
A priority for biomedical research is to understand the causes of variation in susceptibility to infection. To investigate genetic variation in a model system, we used flies collected from single populations of three different species of Drosophila and artificially selected them for resistance to th...
