2012 journal article
A Jungle in There: Bacteria in Belly Buttons are Highly Diverse, but Predictable
PLoS ONE, 7(11), e47712.
Contributors: n, A. Latimer*, J. Henley *, N. Rountree n, N. Fierer *, A. Lucky n, M. Lowman*, R. Dunn n
Ed(s): C. Moreau
MeSH headings : Archaea / genetics; Bacteria / genetics; Humans; Molecular Typing; Phylogeny; RNA, Archaeal / genetics; RNA, Bacterial / genetics; RNA, Ribosomal, 16S / genetics; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Umbilicus / microbiology
TL;DR:
The hypothesis that “oligarchs” dominate diverse assemblages appears to be supported by human-associated bacteria, as shown in the analysis of bacteria and arachaea from the belly buttons of humans sampled within a nation-wide citizen science project.

2012 journal article
Mycangia of Ambrosia Beetles Host Communities of Bacteria
MICROBIAL ECOLOGY, 64(3), 784–793.
Contributors: n, N. Rountree n, S. Diamond n, L. Stelinski *, N. Fierer * & R. Dunn n
MeSH headings : Ambrosia; Animals; Bacteria / classification; Bacteria / genetics; Bacteria / isolation & purification; Coleoptera / classification; Coleoptera / microbiology; Coleoptera / ultrastructure; DNA, Bacterial / analysis; DNA, Ribosomal; Ecosystem; Sequence Analysis, DNA; Species Specificity; Symbiosis
TL;DR:
It is concluded that ambrosia beetles are not obligately dependent on bacterial symbionts, and the mycangium hosts in multiple vertically transmitted bacteria such as Mycoplasma, most of which are likely facultative commensals or parasites.

2011 review
The sudden emergence of pathogenicity in insect-fungus symbioses threatens naive forest ecosystems
[Review of ]. PROCEEDINGS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES, 278(1720), 2866–2873.
Contributors: n & R. Dunn n
author keywords: ambrosia symbiosis; emerging pathogens; host-pathogen coevolution
MeSH headings : Animals; Coleoptera / microbiology; Ecosystem; Fungi / physiology; Introduced Species; Symbiosis / physiology; Trees
TL;DR:
It is suggested that individual cases of tree mortality caused by invasive insect–fungus symbionts should no longer be studied separately, but in a global, biogeographically and phylogenetically explicit comparative framework.
