    Symbiont location, host fitness, and possible coadaptation in a symbiosis between social amoebae and bacteria

    Longfei Shu, Debra A Brock ... Susanne DiSalvo
    Morphological and fitness defects imposed on amoebae hosts by Burkholderia symbionts demonstrates symbiont species-specific effects and provides evidence of host adaptation to naturally acquired symbionts.

    Plant-associated CO2 mediates long-distance host location and foraging behaviour of a root herbivore

    Carla CM Arce, Vanitha Theepan ... Ricardo AR Machado
    The larvae of the western corn rootworm use root-emitted CO2 to successfully locate the most suitable host plant.

    A model symbiosis reveals a role for sheathed-flagellum rotation in the release of immunogenic lipopolysaccharide

    Caitlin A Brennan, Jason R Hunt ... Edward G Ruby
    Both beneficial and pathogenic bacteria can use their sheathed flagella during host colonization as a novel toxin-/signal-delivery mechanism.

    The cation channel TRPA1 tunes mosquito thermotaxis to host temperatures

    Román A Corfas, Leslie B Vosshall
    Female mosquitoes are exquisitely sensitive to human body heat, and the TRPA1 gene is required to focus their attraction toward thermal stimuli resembling warm-blooded hosts.

    Convergence between the microcosms of Southeast Asian and North American pitcher plants

    Leonora S Bittleston, Charles J Wolock ... Anne Pringle
    Host characteristics drive the assembly of similar communities within the convergently evolved and geographically distant pitcher ecosystems of carnivorous pitcher plants.

    MetaHiC phage-bacteria infection network reveals active cycling phages of the healthy human gut

    Martial Marbouty, Agnès Thierry ... Romain Koszul
    Physical contacts of bacteria and phage genomes allow in situ exploration of underdocumented phage families in the gut.

    Influenza A virus surface proteins are organized to help penetrate host mucus

    Michael D Vahey, Daniel A Fletcher
    By distributing receptor-binding and receptor-destroying proteins asymmetrically on their surface, filamentous influenza A virus particles create a Brownian ratchet that facilitates their passage through mucus.

    Predicting geographic location from genetic variation with deep neural networks

    CJ Battey, Peter L Ralph, Andrew D Kern
    Neural networks allow fast and accurate prediction of individual spatial locations from genotypes or sequencing data.

    A hardware system for real-time decoding of in vivo calcium imaging data

    Zhe Chen, Garrett J Blair ... Hugh T Blair
    DeCalciOn is a low-cost open-source hardware system for real-time in vivo calcium imaging that offers capabilities for online decoding of neural population activity and delivery of short latency closed-loop feedback in freely behaving animals.

    Chlamydia interfere with an interaction between the mannose-6-phosphate receptor and sorting nexins to counteract host restriction

    Cherilyn A Elwell, Nadine Czudnochowski ... Oren S Rosenberg
    Structure of a pathogen effector complexed to Sorting Nexin 5 reveals an evolutionarily conserved interface that is required for retromer-dependent host restriction.
