Host-parasite interactions in non-native invasive species are dependent on the levels of standing genetic variation at the immune locus
Abstract Background Parasites may mediate the success of biological invasions through their effect on host fitness and thus, on host population growth and stability. However, a release from the pressure of parasites is strongly related to the genetic differentiation of the host. In invasive host pop...
