Insect Immunity & Drosophila Gut Immune Response
Insect Immunity & Drosophila Gut Immune Response Insect Immunity & Drosophila Gut Immune Response
Insect Characteristics & Peculiarities One of the most diverse animal group (> 70% of animal species) Include *many vectors of human diseases (mosquito, tse-tse flies…) *many damaging crop species * many beneficial microbes (bee, silkworm….) Many adaptive traits, thriving on varied ecological habitats and diets Animal feeding Parasitoid Plant feeding =>Strong capacity to deal with microbes
