This study shows that methylparaben reduces the virulence and transmissibility of Pseudomonas entomophila in Drosophila, highlighting the impact of food preservatives on pathogen behavior.

The study shows that chronic juvenile malnutrition in Drosophila leads to improved early-life pathogen tolerance but increased late-life infection susceptibility.

This study examines whether sexually successful Drosophila melanogaster males sire offspring with greater pathogen resistance, finding context- and sex-dependent relationships that contradict the 'good genes' hypothesis.

The paper identifies a genetically correlated 'power-endurance' axis in Drosophila melanogaster linking energy metabolism, behavior, and starvation resistance across replicate populations.
