Environmental temperature is known to affect many aspects of immune function and alterations in temperature regimes have been implicated in emergent disease outbreaks, making it a critical environmental factor to study in the context of immune phenotype determinants of wild animals. 2.We assessed the relative influences of environmental temperature, genetic background, and their interaction on first-year development of innate and adaptive immune defenses of captive-born garter snakes (Thamnophis elegans) using a reciprocal-transplant laboratory experiment. We used a full-factorial design with snakes from two divergent life-history ecotypes, which are known to differ in immune function in their native habitats, raised under conditions mimicking the natural thermal regime -i.e., warmer and cooler- postnatal life under different thermal environments. Our finding of immune-component specific patterns strongly cautions against oversimplification of the highly complex immune system in ecoimmunological studies. In conjunction, these results deepen our understanding of the degree of immunological flexibility wild animals present, information that is ever more vital in the context of rapid global environmental change.A distannylated electron-deficient bithiophene imide (BTI-Tin)
