Friend or foe? Effects of host immune activation on the transient gut microbiome in the caterpillar Manduca sexta

L. E. McMillan, S. A. Adamo

This paper examines how immune activation affects the transient gut microbiome in Manduca sexta caterpillars, finding no gut sterilization during immune challenges and evidence of physiological trade-offs.

Terminal Reproductive Investment, Physiological Trade-offs and Pleiotropic Effects: Their effects produce complex immune/reproductive interactions in the cricket Gryllus texensis

A. Miyashita, T. Y. M. Lee, L. E. McMillan, R. Easy, S. A. Adamo

The paper investigates reproductive and immune responses in female crickets under immune challenge and dietary restriction, finding no effect of immune challenge on reproduction and unexpected results regarding physiological trade-offs.
