TPCdesign is an R package that optimizes temperature treatments for thermal performance experiments to improve accuracy of thermal response curve estimation.

The paper investigates how Pseudomonas bacteria affect aphid-vectored virus outbreaks in pea crops, showing that their impact depends on parasitoid efficiency in locating aphids.

This study models malaria parasite development and sequestration in vivo using time series data from Plasmodium chabaudi, showing parasites adjust their development to host rhythms at a cost to multiplication rates.

The paper shows dispersal-community feedback promotes regional species coexistence by linking microbe-pollinator interactions to plant-scale competition and spatial partitioning.

The paper investigates how priority effects influence gene expression in nectar yeast, finding differential expression in amino acid metabolism and eQTL enrichment for antifungal resistance.

This study identifies genomic features underlying compact genomes and environmental stress tolerance in chironomid midges by analyzing phylogenomic data and gene family evolution.

jackalope simulates high-throughput sequencing data for phylogenomic and population genomic studies, supporting various sequencing platforms and evolutionary scenarios.
