Microbial communities associated with vertebrate hosts (microbiomes) play crucial roles in host physiology including nutrient acquisition and the immune response. Microbiomes are structured by host ecology and evolution, yet gut microbiome ...

Seventy % of mammals copulate using repeated pelvic thrusting, while the transfer of sperm requires just a single intromission. Why did thrusting evolve to be the dominant form of sexual intercourse? In this study, we investigate how the ra...

Developmental plasticity and holobiont theory have undermined the normative concepts of biological individuality. However, such traditional ideas of biological individuality have helped define and support Western ethical views into the 21st...

Over 97% of ray-finned fish produce free-swimming larvae. With survival rates of less than 0.01% and radically different morphologies from adults, fish larvae play a crucial role in adapting to environmental changes and dispersing fish popu...
Plasticity, not genetics, shapes individual responses to thermal stress in non-native populations of the European green crab (Carcinus maenas) [0.03%]

Temperature is a major driver of individual performance in ectotherms, with this impact depending on stressor intensity and duration. Differences in individual response across temperature, time, and populations are shaped by the interplay b...

Hydrostatic skeletons enable the transmission of mechanical work through a soft body. Despite the ubiquity of these structures among animals, we have a relatively rudimentary understanding of how they operate mechanically. Here we consider ...
