Abstract |
The influence of age, size and nutrition on the immune response of the soft-shelled turtle, Trionyx sinensis, was investigated. The response of 2 year-old turtles against bacteria T3 increased with body size, but this was not noted in 1-year-old turtles. The immune response was greater in 2-year-old turtles than 1-year-olds. Undernourished turtles showed a much weaker immune response.
