The genomic landscape, causes, and consequences of extensive phylogenomic discordance in Old World mice and rats

G. W. C. Thomas, J. J. Hughes, T. Kumon, J. S. Berv, C. E. Nordgren, M. Lampson, M. Levine, J. B. Searle, J. M. Good

This study investigates phylogenomic discordance in Old World mice and rats, finding that genetic linkage and selection influence phylogenetic patterns and that assuming a single species tree can lead to errors in detecting positive selection.

Centromere drive and suppression by parallel pathways for recruiting microtubule destabilizers

T. Kumon, J. Ma, D. Stefanik, E. C. Nordgren, R. B. Akins, J. Kim, M. T. Levine, M. Lampson

The paper shows that centromere drive is suppressed by two parallel pathways, with heterochromatin and kinetochore pathways differing in their suppression of selfish DNA effects.

Mutually Beneficial Symbiosis Between Human and Gut-Dominant Bacteroides Species Through Bacterial Assimilation of Host Mucosubstances

M. Sato, K. Kajikawa, T. Kumon, D. Watanabe, R. Takase, W. Hashimoto

This study shows Bacteroides species dominate the human gut microbiota by degrading mucosubstances like GAGs and mucin, producing metabolites beneficial to human health.
