Experimental constraints on mate preferences in Drosophila pseudoobscura decrease offspring viability and fitness of mated pairs.

abstract：:Mounting effective T cell responses is critical for eliciting long-lasting immunity following viral infection and vaccination. A multitude of inhibitory and stimulatory factors are induced following infection, and it is the compilation of these signals that quantitatively and qualitatively program the ensuing effector...
