Potential life-history costs of parasitoid avoidance in Drosophila melanogaster

Pupal parasitoids are a common natural enemy of Drosophila. As Drosophila pupae do not have an immunological defence against pupal parasitoids, they have to avoid being attacked. As a first step to identifying the costs of avoidance of parasitism by pupal parasitoids, we explored three traits that p...
