This project explores the evolutionary dynamics of bacterial mutualism, specifically focusing on the aphid symbiont Regiella insecticola. It aims to identify the ecological conditions that lead to the gain or loss of beneficial functions in symbiotic relationships.
Diverse bacterial lineages form beneficial relationships with hosts.
Identifying the conditions under which relationships with symbiotic microbes stabilize or breakdown is key to understanding the major evolutionary transitions that have arisen from two species joining to form a new higher-level organism.Theory predicts that bacterial mutualism is maintained when partners provide reciprocal fitness benefits.
The first step in understanding the evolution of bacterial mutualism is to identify the…
