imdshadok flies show increased mortality to systemic infection with E. cloacae when compared to controls.
imdshadok/Df(2R)PC4 transheterozygotes infected with DCV do not show significant differences in survival, as compared to infected controls.
Compared to wild type controls, adult imdshadok flies are much more susceptible to septic infection by the Enterobacter cloacae bacterium.
