Circular Single-Stranded DNA Virus (Microviridae: Gokushovirinae: Jodiemicrovirus) Associated with the Pathobiome of the Flat-Back Mud Crab, Eurypanopeus depressus
(2019-11-21)
A single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) virus is presented from a metagenomic data set derived from Alphaproteobacteria-infected hepatopancreatic tissues of the crab Eurypanopeus depressus. The circular virus genome (4,768 bp) encodes ...
Founder effects and species introductions: A host versus parasite perspective
(2019-08-07)
Species colonizations (both natural and anthropogenic) can be associated with genetic
founder effects, where founding populations demonstrate significant genetic bottlenecks compared to native populations. Yet, many ...
Recent introductions reveal differential susceptibility to parasitism across an evolutionary mosaic
(2019-08-14)
Parasitism can represent a potent agent of selection, and introduced parasites have
the potential to substantially alter their new hosts' ecology and evolution. While sig‐
nificant impacts have been reported for parasites ...
An evolutionary perspective on marine invasions
(2019-12-10)
Species distributions are rapidly changing as human globalization increasingly moves organisms to novel environments. In marine systems, species introductions are the result of a number of anthropogenic mechanisms, notably ...
