Adult Blow Flies Host Diverse Carrion‐Associated Microbiomes
Blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) perform important yet often overlooked roles in ecosystems as decomposers, pollinators and vectors of disease. Central to these functions are their associations with microbial communities, which are maintained through close contact with diverse microbe‐rich substrates such as carrion, dung and flowers.

We describe the host response continuum for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), including the continuum of host responses to HPAIV infection and exposure based on the primary axis of host competence, ability to infect other hosts, and host vulnerability.

Diet of bird‐like troodontid dinosaurs: synthesis of a contentious clade
ABSTRACT Troodontidae is a clade of small‐to medium‐sized maniraptoran theropods that mainly lived in Laurasia (modern Asia, North America and Europe) during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods and are believed to have had a variety of diets. The uniqueness of troodontid teeth suggests that they diverged from the typical flesh‐based diet of non‐avian ...

Evolution of N‐terminal mechanical lability as a determinant for Type III secretion
Abstract Many Gram‐negative pathogens critically depend on the Type III secretion system (T3SS) to inject effector proteins into host cells for colonization. Because the channel of the T3SS is narrow (~2 nm), effectors must be unfolded for secretion.
