Effects of joint invasion: how co-invaders affect each other's success in model food webs?

This paper investigates how two invasive species affect each other's success in food webs through theoretical modeling and simulations.

Threshold public goods game in well mixed populations: Cooperation in density independent and density dependent cases

This paper studies cooperation in threshold public goods games in well-mixed populations, showing that cooperation can persist even without deme structure and that density fluctuations and levels affect cooperation outcomes.

Cue-driven microbial cooperation and communication: evolving quorum sensing with honest signalling.

This study investigates the evolutionary dynamics of quorum sensing in microbial cooperation, showing that cue-based signaling resists cheating and promotes cooperation under various environmental conditions.

Density-dependent private benefit leads to bacterial mutualism

The paper models how density-dependent private benefits influence the evolution of bacterial mutualism, showing that interdependent cooperation is favored under certain conditions.

Dispersal behaviour as the outcome and trigger of multilevel selection in a social spider

The paper introduces an individual-based model to study dispersal behavior in social spiders, showing it is both a result and trigger of multilevel selection.

Efficient assembly and long-term stability of defensive microbiomes via private resources and community bistability

The paper reviews mechanisms hosts use to promote beneficial microbiomes and shows that intermediate antibiotic diffusion best supports their assembly.

Experimental demonstration that screening can enable the environmental recruitment of a defensive microbiome

The paper demonstrates that screening theory explains how hosts selectively recruit antibiotic-producing microbes by simulating ant microbiome competition in vitro.
