Investigating the phylogenetic history of toxin tolerance in mushroom-feeding Drosophila

T. Erlenbach, L. Haynes, O. Fish, J. Beveridge, E. Bingolo, S.-A. Giambrone, G. Kropelin, S. Rudisill, P. Chialvo, L. Reed, K. Dyer, C. S. Chialvo

This study investigates the evolution of cyclopeptide tolerance in mushroom-feeding Drosophila by combining phylogenetic analysis and functional assays, revealing that tolerance was ancestral and lost multiple times.

Expanded diversity of novel hemoplasmas in rare and undersampled Neotropical bats

D. Volokhov, L. Lock, K. Dyer, I. DeAnglis, B. Andrews, M. Simonis, S. Stockmaier, G. Carter, C. Downs, B. Fenton, N. B. Simmons, D. Becker

The paper identifies novel hemoplasmas in Neotropical bats by analyzing 80 samples, finding new genotypes and host shifts, including a hemoplasma closely related to a human pathogen.
