• Physiological mechanisms mediating costs of immune responses: what can we learn from studies of birds? (2012, background): “Lines selected for increased growth had compromised immune function, whereas in lines selected for increased immune function growth was unaffected (van der Most et al. 2011).”
• An evolutionary ecology perspective to address forest pathology challenges of today and tomorrow (2016, neutral): “A recent meta-analysis demonstrated that the selection of poultry lines for rapid growth unintentionally resulted in a strongly reduced immune function (Van der Most et al. 2011).”
