Fatty acid synthesis knockdown promotes biofilm wrinkling and inhibits sporulation in Bacillus subtilis

H. A. Arjes, H. Gui, R. Porter, E. Atolia, J. Peters, C. Gross, D. B. Kearns, K. A. Huang

This study uses CRISPRi to knockdown essential genes in Bacillus subtilis and finds that fatty acid synthesis knockdown increases biofilm wrinkling and inhibits sporulation.

Kiawah and Seabrook islands are a critical site for the rufa red knot (Calidris canutus rufa)

M. M. Pelton, S. R. Padula, J. Garcia-Walther, M. Andrews, R. Mercer, R. Porter, F. Sanders, J. Thibault, N. R. Senner, J. A. Linscott

The paper estimates the population and stopover duration of rufa red knots at Kiawah and Seabrook islands and identifies a network of coastal sites critical for their migration.

Stabilizing selection shapes variation in phenotypic plasticity

D. Becker, K. Barnard-Kubow, R. Porter, A. Edwards, E. Voss, A. P. Beckerman, A. O. Bergland

The paper tests stabilizing selection on phenotypic plasticity in Daphnia pulex by analyzing genetic variation in anti-predator defenses under predation risk.

Polygenic variation in sexual investment across an ephemerality gradient in Daphnia pulex

K. B. Barnard-Kubow, D. Becker, C. S. Murray, R. Porter, G. Gutierrez, P. A. Erickson, J. C. B. Nunez, E. Voss, K. Suryamohan, A. Ratan, A. Beckerman, A. O. Bergland

The paper investigates polygenic variation in sexual investment in Daphnia pulex across an ephemerality gradient, finding that clonal diversity, not genetic diversity, varies with ephemerality and identifying multiple QTL for male production.
