Phylosymbiosis: The Eco-Evolutionary Pattern of Insect-Symbiont Interactions. [PDF]
Insects harbor diverse assemblages of bacterial and fungal symbionts, which play crucial roles in host life history. Insects and their various symbionts represent a good model for studying host–microbe interactions. Phylosymbiosis is used to describe an eco-evolutionary pattern, providing a new cross-system trend in the research of host-associated ...

The Phylosymbiosis Pattern Between the Fig Wasps of the Same Genus and Their Associated Microbiota [PDF]
Microbial communities can be critical for many metazoans, which can lead to the observation of phylosymbiosis with phylogenetically related species sharing similar microbial communities.

Evidence of phylosymbiosis in Formica ants
IntroductionInsects share intimate relationships with microbes that play important roles in their biology. Yet our understanding of how host-bound microbial communities assemble and perpetuate over evolutionary time is limited.

Phylosymbiosis in the Rhizosphere Microbiome Extends to Nitrogen Cycle Functional Potential [PDF]
Most plants rely on specialized root-associated microbes to obtain essential nitrogen (N), yet not much is known about the evolutionary history of the rhizosphere–plant interaction.

Microclimate shapes the phylosymbiosis of rodent gut microbiota in Jordan’s Great Rift Valley
Host phylogeny and the environment play vital roles in shaping animal microbiomes. However, the effects of these variables on the diversity and richness of the gut microbiome in different bioclimatic zones remain underexplored.

Schistosomiasis Vector Snails and Their Microbiota Display a Phylosymbiosis Pattern [PDF]
Planorbidae snails are the intermediate host for the trematode parasite of the Schistosoma genus, which is responsible for schistosomiasis, a disease that affects both humans and cattle. The microbiota for Schistosoma has already been described as having

Phylosymbiosis and Parallel Geographical Patterns in the Gut Microbiota of Desert-Dwelling Amphibians and Reptiles. [PDF]
Host species emerge as a significant contributor to interspecies variations in the gut microbiota of desert‐dwelling amphibians and reptiles, illustrating phylosymbiosis among the studied species. Geographical factors partially account for interpopulation variations in the gut microbiota of Bufotes pewzowi and Teratoscincus przewalskii, with parallel ...

Coral-associated bacteria demonstrate phylosymbiosis and cophylogeny [PDF]
Associations between corals and symbiotic microorganisms could be driven by the environment or shared evolutionary history. Here, the authors examine relationships between coral phylogenies and associated microbiomes, finding evidence of phylosymbiosis ...

Phylosymbiosis: Relationships and Functional Effects of Microbial Communities across Host Evolutionary History. [PDF]
Phylosymbiosis was recently proposed to describe the eco-evolutionary pattern, whereby the ecological relatedness of host-associated microbial communities parallels the phylogeny of related host species. Here, we test the prevalence of phylosymbiosis and

Spider phylosymbiosis: divergence of widow spider species and their tissues’ microbiomes [PDF]
Background Microbiomes can have profound impacts on host biology and evolution, but to date, remain vastly understudied in spiders despite their unique and diverse predatory adaptations.
