The effect of diet and time after bacterial infection on fecundity, resistance, and tolerance in Drosophila melanogaster

Mounting and maintaining an effective immune response in the face of infection can be costly. The outcome of infection depends on two host immune strategies: resistance and tolerance. Resistance limits pathogen load, while tolerance reduces the fitness impact of an infection. While resistance strate...
