Mutualist-Provided Resources Increase Susceptibility to Parasites

E. Yi, N. Meng, C. W. Wood

The paper tests two hypotheses for why mutualistic microbes increase host susceptibility to parasites and finds that resource availability, not mutualism establishment, drives increased infection.

Genotypic variation in resource exchange, use, and production traits in the legume-rhizobia mutualism

M. Calvert, M. Hoque, C. W. Wood

This study quantifies how host and symbiont genotypes influence resource exchange, use, and production traits in legume-rhizobia mutualisms, finding that rhizobia genotype and GxG effects are common for exchange traits but not for use and production traits.

Multivariate divergence in wild microbes: no evidence for evolution along a genetic line of least resistance

E. Gluck-Thaler, M. Shaikh, C. W. Wood

The paper tests if microbial trait divergence follows genetic lines of least resistance and finds no evidence for this pattern in fungal endophytes.

The evolutionary forces shaping cis and trans regulation of gene expression within a population of outcrossing plants.

E. B. Josephs, Y. W. Lee, C. W. Wood, D. Schoen, S. Wright, J. Stinchcombe

The paper identifies trans-eQTLs in Capsella grandiflora and finds they are under stronger negative selection than cis-eQTLs, though some trans-eQTLs persist at intermediate frequencies.

Navigating the structural landscape of de novo α-helical bundles

G. G. Rhys, C. W. Wood, J. L. Beesley, N. R. Zaccai, A. J. Burton, R. L. Brady, A. R. Thomson, D. N. Woolfson

This paper designs a hyperstable antiparallel coiled-coil tetramer by analyzing structural transitions in synthetic peptides.

Genetic conflict with a parasitic nematode disrupts the legume-rhizobia mutualism

C. W. Wood, B. Pilkington, P. Vaidya, C. Biel, J. Stinchcombe

This study shows that genetic conflict between attracting rhizobia and repelling nematodes exists in Medicago truncatula, with nematode infection reducing nodule formation and biomass.
