Nematodes are abundant and diverse, and include many parasitic species. Molecular
phylogenetic analyses have shown that parasitism of plants and animals has arisen at least …

Filarial nematodes are important helminth parasites of the tropics and a leading cause of
global disability. They include species responsible for onchocerciasis, lymphatic filariasis …

Phylosymbiosis was recently proposed to describe the eco-evolutionary pattern, whereby
the ecological relatedness of host-associated microbial communities parallels the phylogeny …

Obligate insect–bacterium nutritional mutualism is among the most sophisticated forms of
symbiosis, wherein the host and the symbiont are integrated into a coherent biological entity …

The eubacterial genus Wolbachia comprises one of the most abundant groups of obligate
