This study compares SNP and full locus datasets in phylogenomic analyses, finding that tree topology is largely congruent but filtering missing data too strictly can reduce confidence in relationships.

The paper assesses biosynthetic gene cluster diversity in gut symbionts of turtle ants, finding high diversity correlated with host geography and conserved metabolic functions across different host species.

The paper shows that parasitic fungi manipulate ants to bite twigs in temperate forests due to environmental conditions, indicating convergent evolution of host behavior.

This study shows that mutualistic acacia-ants do not rely on specialized bacteria for nutrition, despite their herbivorous diet.
