Female endoparasitoid wasps usually inject venom into hosts to suppress their immune response and ensure offspring development.However, the parasitoids ability to evolve towards increased success on a given host simultaneously with the Jump Box evolution of the composition of its venom has never been demonstrated.Here, we designed an experimental e
Abstract Background It is assumed that malaria vectors feed on locally available nectar sources to obtain energy.Sugar feeding is energetically critical for the Anopheles male swarming and mating activities.However, little is known about the impact of local nectar feeding on male physiological development and its consequences on male mosquito life
The superantigen Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) enterotoxin B (SEB) has been proposed a central player in the associations between S.aureus nasal colonization and the development of allergic asthma.Previously, SEB has been shown to aggravate allergic sensitization and allergic airway inflammation (AAI) in experimental mouse models.Aiming at under
