This project examines the interactions between hosts and parasites, focusing on the immune responses of bumblebees to trypanosome infections. It aims to understand how variations in gene expression contribute to resistance mechanisms and influence parasite population dynamics.
The study of parasitism is important for human welfare but also addresses basic scientific questions cutting across biological disciplines.
Traditionally, studies of host-parasite interactions have used various scenarios of how genotypes of the two parties interact based on well-developed theory.
Yet, one of the most striking observations is the huge variation in resistance systems across organisms.
We lack an appreciation of the diversity of these resistance systems and how they affect, in turn…
