tRNA signatures reveal polyphyletic origins of streamlined SAR11 genomes among the alphaproteobacteria [PDF]
, 2013 Phylogenomic analyses are subject to bias from compositional convergence and noise from horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Compositional convergence is a likely cause of controversy regarding phylogeny of the SAR11 group of Alphaproteobacteria that have ...

Legume Science, Volume 7, Issue 4, December 2025.ABSTRACT Legume root nodules host symbiotic rhizobia that are essential for nitrogen fixation but also harbor diverse non‐rhizobial taxa that remain poorly characterized. Field pea (Pisum sativum) cultivars adapted to distinct seasonal growth (spring and winter) offer an opportunity to explore whether host genotype influences nodule‐associated ...

Whole Genome Sequencing Reveals Clade‐Specific Genetic Variation in Blacklegged Ticks
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.In this study, we performed whole genome nanopore sequencing of individual blacklegged ticks across their geographical range to evaluate genetic divergence among populations. Our integrated analyses identified genetic variants associated with numerous biological processes and molecular functions that segregated across populations.

Prevalence of Heritable Symbionts in Parisian Bedbugs (Hemiptera: Cimicidae)
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2025.Bedbugs are known to host three symbionts: an obligate partner, Wolbachia, and two facultative symbionts, Symbiopectobacterium and Candidatus Tisiphia. However, the frequency of these symbionts in natural populations is unknown. We tested materials from the Paris 2023 bedbug outbreak and found that most Cimex lectularius individuals carry all three ...
