Host specificity and genetics of host resistance in the "Daphnia-Pasteuria" host-parasite system [PDF]
, 2012 Antagonistic coevolution plays an important role in a large number of evolutionary and ecological phenomena. Furthermore, according to the Red Queen Theory coevolution between hosts and their parasites may explain the maintenance of sexual reproduction ...

Variation in resistance to multiple pathogen species:anther-smuts of Silene uniflora [PDF]
, 2012 The occurrence of multiple pathogen species on a shared host species is unexpected when they exploit the same micro-niche within the host. One explanation for such observations is the evolution of pathogen-specific resistances that segregate the host ...

Oestrogens and Host Resistance [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 1980 The literature is searched for references to studies dealing with the immunobiological effects of pregnancy and other instances of increased estrogenic production in humans and various animal species. In the human female the estrogen-related metabolic changes associated with pregnancy and reproduction have widespread effects on host tolerance of the ...

Cryptococcus gattii: An Emerging Cause of Fungal Disease in North America
Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, 2009 During the latter half of the twentieth century, fungal pathogens such as Cryptococcus neoformans were increasingly recognized as a significant threat to the health of immune compromised populations throughout the world.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Aspergillus flavus colonization in developing kernels of maize single-cross hybrids resistant (Mp313E × Mp717) and susceptible (GA209 × T173) to aflatoxin accumulation was determined in the field over three growing seasons (2012–2014).

Aflatoxin Accumulation in a Maize Diallel Cross
Agriculture, 2015 Aflatoxins, produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus, occur naturally in maize. Contamination of maize grain with aflatoxin is a major food and feed safety problem and greatly reduces the value of the grain.
