This study shows fungal-bacterial interactions asymmetrically affect resistance and recovery to extreme heat, with fungi helping bacteria but bacteria limiting fungal recovery across soil moisture levels.

The paper shows that exposure to herbivore-induced plant volatiles increases jasmonate levels and primes chemical defenses in cotton plants, leading to enhanced toxin production and volatile emissions upon herbivory.

The paper shows infected mosquitoes adjust their diet to reduce parasite load and extend lifespan, suggesting self-medication despite benefits in uninfected individuals.

This study investigates how virulent strains of the microsporidian parasite Vavraia culicis alter host resource dynamics in Anopheles gambiae, revealing effects on protein, carbohydrate, lipid, and metal content.

The paper demonstrates biocontrol using oxalotrophic bacteria to combat Aspergillus niger in a mouse infection model by interfering with oxalic acid production.
