The Genetic Basis of Natural Variation in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> Immune Defense against <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i>

The Genetic Basis of Natural Variation in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> Immune Defense against <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i>

Dissecting the genetic basis of natural variation in disease response in hosts provides insights into the coevolutionary dynamics of host-pathogen interactions. Here, a genome-wide association study of <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> survival after infection with the Gram-positive entomop...
