The microbiome shapes many host traits, yet the biology of microbiomes challenges
traditional evolutionary models. Here, we illustrate how integrating the microbiome into …

One-carbon (1C) metabolism comprises a series of interlinking metabolic pathways that

Why a thoroughly updated and revised second edition of this book about theories of disease
distribution, in past and present societal and ecological context? Because the lived realities …

Many biologists are asking whether environmentally initiated phenotypic change
(ie,'phenotypic plasticity') precedes, and even facilitates, evolutionary adaptation. However …

Our understanding of species evolution is undergoing restructuring. It is well accepted that
host–symbiont coevolution is responsible for fundamental aspects of biology. However, the …

Most animals and plants have associated microorganisms, collectively referred to as their
microbiomes, which can provide essential functions. Given their importance, host-associated …

During times of rapid environmental change, survival of most vertebrate populations
depends on their phenomic plasticity. Although differential gene-expression and post …

Abstract Background Helicoverpa armigera and Helicoverpa zea are major caterpillar pests
of Old and New World agriculture, respectively. Both, particularly H. armigera, are extremely …

This chapter began as a post on my Critical Polyamorist Blog, the platform on which I first
began exploring autoethnographically my experiences in consensual nonmonogamy …

The advent of relatively inexpensive tools for characterizing microbial communities has led
to an explosion of research exploring the diversity, ecology, and evolution of microbe-host …
