Natural selection has driven the recurrent loss of an immunity gene that protects Drosophila against a major natural parasite
Polymorphisms in immunity genes can have large effects on susceptibility to infection. To understand the origins of this variation, we have investigated the genetic basis of resistance to the parasitoid wasp Leptopilina boulardi in Drosophila melanogaster. We found that increased expression of the g...
