How to Obtain Appropriate Executive Decisions Using Artificial Immunologic Systems

Quantifying Adaptive Evolution in the Drosophila Immune System
... The high rate of adaptive evolution that we found in immunity genes could be driven either by a general elevation in the strength of selection across all immunity genes, or by a few key genes experiencing intense selection pressures. To investigate this, we examined the distribution of a across gene ...
