Genotype-Specific vs. Cross-Reactive Host Immunity against a Macroparasite
Vertebrate hosts often defend themselves against several co-infecting parasite genotypes simultaneously. This has important implications for the ecological dynamics and the evolution of host defence systems and parasite strategies. For example, it can drive the specificity of the adaptive immune sys...
