This study identifies Toll-9 as a key receptor for antiviral immunity against Drosophila C virus, showing it binds dsRNA, activates RNAi, and induces apoptosis.

This study investigates the role of two type III secretion systems in Providencia alcalifaciens, showing their differential contributions to host interactions and pathogenicity.

This study shows that activating insulin signaling in mosquitoes during West Nile virus infection leads to viral mutations that may help the virus escape antiviral pressure.

This study investigates how caspase-8 regulates TNFα production and restricts Coxiella burnetii replication in macrophages during infection.

This study identifies 25 genes associated with Coxiella burnetii infection in Drosophila using GWAS and functional validation.
