Thermal sensitivity and seasonal change in the gut microbiome of a desert ant, Cephalotes rohweri

M. S. McMunn, A. I. Hudson, A. Zemenick, M. Egerer, S. M. Philpott, R. L. Vannette

The paper examines how temperature affects the gut microbiome of desert ants, finding that bacterial abundance and composition change with elevated temperatures in both field and lab settings.

Predator diversity and thermal niche complementarity attenuate indirect effects of warming on prey survival

A. A. Pepi, M. S. McMunn

The paper models how predator diversity and thermal niche characteristics influence indirect effects of warming on prey survival in ant communities.

Fungi are more dispersal-limited than bacteria among flowers

R. L. Vannette, M. S. McMunn, G. W. Hall, I. Munkres, T. G. Mueller, D. Perry

The paper compares dispersal abilities of bacteria and fungi in flower-inhabiting microbial communities, finding bacteria disperse more readily via thrips and are more widespread.

Predicted asymmetrical effects of warming on nocturnal and diurnal ectotherms

M. S. McMunn

The paper predicts that warming will asymmetrically affect nocturnal and diurnal ectotherms by expanding nocturnal activity windows and contracting diurnal ones due to temperature function shapes and asymmetric warming.
