Parallel evolution of full-length genomes in a long-term evolution experiment with phage ΦX174

Eva Bons, Hélène Chabas, Hannelore MacDonald, Alejandro Escalera Ledermann, Sira Ösze, Jenny Dunstan, Nicolas Ochsner, Daniel C. Angst, Sebastian Bonhoeffer, Roland R. Regoes

The paper tracks parallel evolution of full-length genomes in bacteriophage populations over 412 generations, showing non-neutral evolutionary dynamics and biases in phylodynamic analysis.

Assessing the role of bacterial innate and adaptive immunity as barriers to conjugative plasmids

Berit Siedentop, Carlota Losa Mediavilla, Roger D. Kouyos, Sebastian Bonhoeffer, Hélène Chabas

This study models how bacterial innate and adaptive immunity affect plasmid spread, finding that immunity suppresses costly plasmids but not beneficial ones.
