symbiont-mediated evasion of recognition by host innate immune effector
A process by which a symbiont mitigates the effects of recognition by a host innate immune effector. Effectors have a direct activity against a symbiont and include complement, antimicrobial peptides, and bacterial restriction enzymes. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction.
