specificity: an R package for analysis of feature specificity to environmental and higher dimensional variables, applied to microbiome species data

J. L. Darcy, A. S. Amend, S. O. I. Swift, P. S. Sommers, C. A. Lozupone

The paper introduces an R package called specificity to analyze feature specificity to environmental and higher-dimensional variables, applied to microbiome species data to reveal hidden patterns.

Plant-microbe specificity varies as a function of elevation

G. M. Cobian, C. Egan, A. S. Amend

This study shows that plant-fungal endophyte specificity varies with elevation, peaking at mid-elevations and being lowest at the extremes.

Foliar fungi alter reproductive timing and allocation in Arabidopsis under normal and water-stressed conditions

G. Zahn, A. S. Amend

This study shows foliar fungi delay flowering and increase seed mass in Arabidopsis under normal and water-stressed conditions, with effects varying by fungal species and inoculum diversity.
