Host relatedness influences the composition of aphid microbiomes.
(2019-12)Animals are host to a community of microbes, collectively referred to as their microbiome, that can play a key role in their hosts' biology. The bacterial endosymbionts of insects have a particularly strong influence on ... -
Insect symbionts in food webs.
(2016-09-05)Recent research has shown that the bacterial endosymbionts of insects are abundant and diverse, and that they have numerous different effects on their hosts' biology. Here we explore how insect endosymbionts might affect ... -
RelTime Rates Collapse to a Strict Clock When Estimating the Timeline of Animal Diversification.
(2017-05-01)Establishing an accurate timescale for the history of life is crucial to understand evolutionary processes. For this purpose, relaxed molecular clock models implemented in a Bayesian MCMC framework are generally used. ...
