• Insect immune resistance to parasitoids (2008, background): “Insects and other invertebrates lack adaptive immunity but possess an effective innate immune system that successfully combats infections (Blandin & Levashina, 2004; Brennan & Anderson, 2004; Christensen et al., 2005; Hoffmann, 1995, 2003; Royet, 2004a, 2004b; Siva-Jothy et al., 2005; Stanley, 2006;”
• Natural host‐plant quality affects immune defence of an insect herbivore (2007, background): “, 1997), the magnitude of the encapsulation reaction against an artificial antigen is an informative and simple way to collectively assay the innate immune resistance (Siva-Jothy et al., 2005), as it reveals the individual’s ability to use both cellular and humoral defence systems against a novel, p”
• Grapevine insect pests and their natural enemies in the age of global warming (2016, background): “Among the factors affecting parasitism efficiency, resistance of the host, especially through its immune system, recently received increasing attention (Haine et al. 2008; Hammill et al. 2010; Siva-Jothy et al. 2005; Vogelweith et al. 2013).”
• Defensive microbial symbionts in Hymenoptera (2014, background): “In addition to the cuticle, there are three main entry routes for pathogens and parasites into the insect’s body (Siva-Jothy et al. 2005): the digestive system, the reproductive tract, and the tracheae.”
• Ecology, Behavior and Evolution of Disease Resistance in Termites (2010, background): “Encapsulation, which is mainly directed against multicellular parasites ( Siva-Jothy et al. 2005 ), involves the participation of hemocytes and the activation of the phenoloxidase proteolytic cascade.”
• Environmental effects on insects and their population dynamics (2014, background): “level of carbohydrate affect the activity of phenoloxidase [54, 55].”
• Short‐term larval food stress and associated compensatory growth reduce adult immune function in a damselfly (2008, background): “Both higher haemocyte numbers and a higher PO activity have been shown to underscore higher resistance against different parasites ( Siva-Jothy et al. , 2005 ).”
