immunocompetence

There is also a tendency for enhanced UV-B radiation levels to increase the immunocompetence of the caterpillars, which could possibly make them more tolerant to the wasp parasitoid [94].

Do global patterns of habitat use and migration strategies co-evolve with relative investments in immunocompetence due to spatial variation in parasite pressure?

Although the effects of winter warming on eggs, increased UV-B radiation levels on leaves, and immunocompetence on caterpillars are likely to increase future damage to subarctic birch forests, it is not known to what extent other processes susceptible to spring and summer climate variability may alleviate these effects.

Increased testosterone may impose an immunocompetence handicap on the bearer and only the best males can carry this handicap.

The results of the adaptive dynamic model, published online in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B last week showed that if the behaviors of males led them to be more exposed to pathogens, this surprisingly also led them to have lower immunocompetence than females.

Specifically, they found that if men were more at risk of disease due to adventurous behavioral tendencies, they might develop lower immunocompetence over time than women.
