Inter-annual variation in prevalence and intensity of mite parasitism relates to appearance and expression of damselfly resistance
BACKGROUND: Insects can resist parasites using the costly process of melanotic encapsulation. This form of physiological resistance has been studied under laboratory conditions, but the abiotic and biotic factors affecting resistance in natural insect populations are not well understood. Mite parasi...
