Of course #lichens are cool, but did you know that thalli have viruses too? Our #preprint describes dsDNA viral diversity in cyanolichen metagenomes. Great collaboration with 'omics experts @APonsero @hurwitzlab from @UAZBIO5 and lichenologists in the Lutzoni lab @DukeBiology.

Back from the grocery store, I noticed my black beans were full of Callosobruchus maculatus. I found they have extracellular Staphylococcus gut symbionts. Only published last month! Great work @berasymbionts,@NicoleGerardo & @HassanSalem aem.asm.org/content/early/…

Plasmid acquisition affects host fitness differently across species in the same community. Cool work on plasmids in natural hosts.

A new report in the Annals of the ESA details 34 species of fungi that are parasites of termites—an effort spurred by researchers puzzling over mysterious growths on termites collected in South America. @eusocialmeg @JessicaLWareLab @Haidomyrmex entomologytoday.org/2021/05/07/mys…

Holy Shik...imatogenerans! What a cool paper. Pesticide breaks bacterium-beetle mutualism. Great work to check out when/if you are recovering from teaching this semester.

Super happy for amazing PhD student @silviabrochet. She elegantly combined gnotobiotic bee with co-culture experiments to recapitulate coexistence patterns observed in vivo in vitro and to study underlying mechanisms using transcriptomics and metabolomics. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Plant-associated and herbivore-associated symbionts are intensively studied in plant-insect interactions. But what about parasitoid-associated microbes? They play a role too! We hope to generate more awareness in this opinion paper sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Today our paper with first author Matt Doremus (@symbiontmrd) was published in Frontiers in Microbiology. Matt shows (literally beautifully) with localization of Cardinium, that CI modification happens in the pupal stage: frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
