Unpredictable soil conditions affect the prevalence of a microbial symbiosis

T. J. Scott, C. J. Stephenson, S. Rao, D. Queller, J. E. Strassmann

The study examines how unpredictable soil conditions influence the prevalence of microbial symbiosis in Dictyostelium discoideum, finding that precipitation unpredictability affects Paraburkholderia symbionts differently.

Symbiotic bacteria, immune-like sentinel cells, and the response to pathogens in a social amoeba

T. J. Scott, T. J. Larsen, D. A. Brock, S. Y. S. Uhm, D. C. Queller, J. E. Strassmann

This study examines how Paraburkholderia endosymbionts affect sentinel cell function in D. discoideum, revealing both immune suppression and toxin protection effects.

Complex third-party effects in the Dictyostelium-Paraburkholderia symbiosis: prey bacteria that are eaten, carried, or left behind

T. J. Scott, D. C. Queller, J. E. Strassmann

The paper investigates how Dictyostelium hosts interact with prey bacteria in the presence of Paraburkholderia symbionts, finding that hosts leave behind both symbionts and prey bacteria, but uneaten prey bacteria do not fully explain reduced spore production.

Cooperation genes are more pleiotropic than private genes in the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa

T. J. Scott

This study compares pleiotropy in cooperative and private genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, finding cooperative genes are more pleiotropic based on protein interactions, gene ontology terms, and expression specificity.

Context-dependence in the symbiosis between Dictyostelium discoideum and Paraburkholderia

T. J. Scott, D. C. Queller, J. E. Strassmann

This study shows how food context affects the Dictyostelium-Paraburkholderia symbiosis, with benefits for both partners in harsh environments.
