The paper shows that host diversity maintains genetic diversity in herbivore populations by preserving rare variants and reducing fitness trade-offs.

The paper shows that deep sequencing increases artificial diversity estimates in microbial studies and suggests using no-diversity amplicons to optimize sequencing parameters.

This study models how shared host-pathogen interactions influence resistance gene polymorphism and trans-specific polymorphism in two related host species.

The paper examines transcriptome organization in wild Arabidopsis thaliana populations and finds that biotic-response networks are well conserved, while other networks are reorganized in natural settings.

This study identifies candidate genes and signatures of natural selection in Arabidopsis thaliana's response to commensal bacteria, revealing genetic architecture and adaptation mechanisms.

The paper examines how seasonality, land use, and host diversity influence microbiome-pathogen interactions in wild Arabidopsis thaliana populations across different habitats.

This study observes rapid genetic adaptation and population dynamics in Arabidopsis thaliana across diverse climates over 5 years, showing predictable adaptation trends linked to survival and extinction risks.

This study shows that local adaptation in Arabidopsis thaliana involves strong and variable selection on multiple traits, with trade-offs and life-history strategies affecting fitness.

This study shows that a regular chow diet, not microbial transplant, enables rapid gut microbiome recovery after antibiotics in mice, and that diet is essential for effective fecal microbiota transplant.

The paper uses a computational model to show that negative frequency-dependent selection contributes to the modular structure of effector repertoires in Pseudomonas syringae.

This study shows that microbial communities are more vulnerable to invasion during transient dynamics, with invaders having greater impact before communities stabilize.

The paper identifies genes involved in herbivory between butterflies and their host-plants using genome-wide association studies and comparative analyses.

The paper estimates the mutation rate and evolutionary relevance in a colonizing plant lineage using historical and modern genomic data.
