文摘

Behavioural fever is a synergic immune response to infection in ectotherms. Zebrafish larvae (Danio rerio) select their preferred temperature within a vertical gradient tank. The onset of the behavioural fever response was established at 18–20 dpf. When challenged with dsRNA zebrafish larvae display behavioural fever coupled to an increased antiviral mRNA response.
