Compensatory mutations reducing the fitness cost of plasmid carriage occur in plant rhizosphere communities

S. Bird, S. Ford, C. M. A. Thompson, R. Little, J. P. J. Hall, R. Jackson, J. G. Malone, E. G. Harrison, M. Brockhurst

The paper shows compensatory mutations reduce the fitness cost of plasmid carriage in Pseudomonas fluorescens in plant rhizosphere communities.

Plasmid manipulation of bacterial behaviour through translational regulatory crosstalk

C. Thompson, J. Hall, G. Chandra, C. Martins, G. Saalbach, S. Bird, S. Ford, R. Little, A. Piazza, E. Harrison, R. Jackson, M. Brockhurst, J. Malone

This paper identifies RsmQ as a plasmid translational regulator that globally controls bacterial behavior by altering the proteome, leading to a switch from motile to sessile lifestyle.

Predation risk differentially affects aphid morphotypes: impacts on prey behavior, fecundity and transgenerational dispersal morphology

S. L. Hermann, S. Bird, D. Ellis, D. Landis

This study shows that predation risk affects different aphid morphotypes in distinct ways, altering behavior, fecundity, and transgenerational dispersal morphology.
