Anti-fungal innate immunity in C. elegans is enhanced by evolutionary diversification of antimicrobial peptides.
Encounters with pathogens provoke changes in gene transcription that are an integral part of host innate immune responses. In recent years, studies with invertebrate model organisms have given insights into the origin, function, and evolution of innate immunity. Here, we use genome-wide transcriptom...
