Finer-Scale Phylosymbiosis: Insights from Insect Viromes
mSystems, 2018 Phylosymbiosis was recently proposed to describe the eco-evolutionary pattern whereby the ecological relatedness (e.g., beta diversity relationships) of host-associated microbial communities parallels the phylogeny of the host species.
