Differential sensitivity to infections and antimicrobial peptide-mediated immune response in four silkworm strains with different geographical origin
Abstract The domesticated silkworm Bombyx mori has an innate immune system, whose main effectors are the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). Silkworm strains are commonly grouped into four geographical types (Japanese, Chinese, European and Tropical) and are generally characterised by a variable suscepti...
