The paper develops an evolutionary epidemiology model to study how pathogens adapt to seasonal environments, revealing two regimes of seasonal timing adaptation.

This paper extends evolutionary branching theory to multi-dimensional trait spaces by introducing branching possibility and inevitability criteria, showing they can induce branching under both asexual and sexual reproduction.

This study shows spatial structure can either promote or hinder the spread of cooperative anti-CRISPR phages, depending on host and phage efficacy.

This study uses a mathematical model to show that interspecific pollen transfer can lead to stable coexistence or extinction of plant species depending on the impact of pollen transfer on both species.
