The macroecology of immunity: predominant influence of climate on invertebrate immune response
Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.The immune system is the primary defense against parasites. With the ever‐increasing rate of disease, epidemiologic models considering geographic variation in immune responses could prove useful. Despite increasing interest in the macroecology of parasitism and infectious diseases, we know little about the macroecology of immune responses (i.e ...
