Co-habiting ants and silverfish display a converging feeding ecology

T. Parmentier, R. M. Baltanas, C. Valdivia, M. Gaju-Ricart, P. Boeckx, P. Lukasik, N. Wybouw

This study shows that silverfish co-habiting with ants have diets and microbiomes converging with their ant hosts, indicating host specialization influences feeding ecology.

Interacting host modifier systems control Wolbachia-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility in a haplodiploid mite

N. Wybouw, F. Mortier, D. Bonte

This study identifies host modifier systems that suppress Wolbachia-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility in Tetranychus mites, revealing complex genetic interactions and maternal effects.

Large-scale comparative genomics unravels great genomic diversity across the Rickettsia and Ca. Megaira genera and identifies Torix group as an evolutionarily distinct clade.

H. R. Davison, J. Pilgrim, N. Wybouw, J. Parker, S. Pirro, S. Hunter-Barnett, P. M. Campbell, F. Blow, A. C. Darby, G. D. D. Hurst, S. Siozios

This paper presents new genomes of Rickettsia and Ca. Megaira, identifies Torix as a distinct clade, and proposes a new genus name for it.

Honest cues contribute to male choice for female guarding in a herbivorous spider mite.

S. F. Goossens, F. Mortier, T. Parmentier, F. Batsleer, T. Van Leeuwen, N. Wybouw, D. Bonte

The paper shows male spider mites prefer females closer to sexual maturity and with higher fecundity, but cannot identify the specific cues used for this choice.

Kin competition accelerates experimental range expansion in an arthropod herbivore

K. H. P. Van Petegem, F. Moerman, M. Dahirel, E. A. Fronhofer, M. Vandegehuchte, T. Van Leeuwen, N. Wybouw, R. Stoks, D. Bonte

The paper shows that kin competition can accelerate range expansion in spider mites through plastic dispersal responses, highlighting its importance in range dynamics.
