A conserved genetic basis for commensal-host specificity through live imaging of colonization dynamics

K. Gutierrez-Garcia, K. Aumiller, R. Dodge, B. Obadia, A. Deng, S. Agrawal, X. Yuan, R. Wolff, N. Garud, W. B. Ludington

The paper uses live imaging of Drosophila gut colonization to show that Lactiplantibacillus plantarum recognizes a specific niche via a conserved colonization island.

Community diversity is associated with intra-species genetic diversity and gene loss in the human gut microbiome

N. Madi, D. Chen, R. Wolff, B. J. Shapiro, N. R. Garud

The paper shows that community diversity in the human gut microbiome is linked to intra-species genetic diversity and gene loss, supporting both Diversity Begets Diversity and Black Queen Hypothesis mechanisms.

Ecological Stability Emerges at the Level of Strains in the Human Gut Microbiome

R. Wolff, W. R. Shoemaker, N. R. Garud

The paper analyzes strain-level dynamics in the human gut microbiome and finds that strain abundances follow macroecological laws similar to species-level patterns, indicating ecological stability at the strain level.
