The genetic architecture of helminth-specific immune responses in a wild population of Soay sheep (Ovis aries).
Much of our knowledge of the drivers of immune variation, and how these responses vary over time, comes from humans, domesticated livestock or laboratory organisms. While the genetic basis of variation in immune responses have been investigated in these systems, there is a poor understanding of how...
