Inter- and intra-species variation in genome-wide gene expression of Drosophila in response to parasitoid wasp attack

Abstract Background Parasitoid resistance in Drosophila varies considerably, among and within species. An immune response, lamellocyte-mediated encapsulation, evolved in a subclade of Drosophila and was subsequently lost in at least one species within this subclade. While the mechanisms of resistanc...
