The paper shows a trade-off between competitive ability and host colonization in Pseudomonas populations has persisted for centuries.

This study uses museum specimens and field collections of Arabidopsis thaliana to analyze genetic diversity and temporal changes, finding genetic stasis and mixed signals of adaptation.

The paper identifies horizontal mini-chromosome transfers in clonal blast fungus lineages, showing genetic exchange between host-associated isolates.

This study evaluates how SNP calling parameters affect population genetic analyses in the rice blast fungus, finding minimal impact on key evolutionary inferences despite variations in SNP counts.

The paper identifies and analyzes hypervariable mini-chromosomes in Magnaporthe oryzae isolates from different grass hosts, showing their role in genomic rearrangements and potential adaptive evolution.
