A role for nematocytes in the cellular immune response of the Drosophilid Zaprionus indianus
The melanotic encapsulation response mounted by Drosophila melanogaster against macroparasites, which is based on haemocyte binding to foreign objects, is poorly characterized relative to its humoral immune response against microbes, and appears to be variable across insect lineages. The genus Zapri...
