2015 journal article
Physicochemical conditions, metabolites and community structure of the bacterial microbiota in the gut of wood-feeding cockroaches (Blaberidae: Panesthiinae).
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 91(2), 1–14.
author keywords: cockroach; gut microbiota; diversity; lignocellulose; hydrogen
TL;DR:
It is shown that physicochemical gut conditions and microbial fermentation products in the gut of Panesthia angustipennis resemble that of other cockroaches, reinforcing the hypothesis that strong environmental selection drives community structure in the cockroach gut.

Tropical Strains of Ralstonia solanacearum Outcompete Race 3 Biovar 2 Strains at Lowland Tropical Temperatures
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 81(10), 3542–3551.
Ed(s): H. Drake
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological; Solanum lycopersicum / microbiology; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Ralstonia solanacearum / classification; Ralstonia solanacearum / genetics; Ralstonia solanacearum / isolation & purification; Ralstonia solanacearum / physiology; Temperature; Tropical Climate
TL;DR:
The hypothesis that differences in temperature adaptation and competitive fitness explain the uneven geographic distribution of R. solanacearum strains is tested and the superior competitive index of UW551 at 24/19°C suggests that adaptation to cool temperatures could explain why only R3bv2 strains threaten highland agriculture.

Shared and unique responses of insects to the interaction of urbanization and background climate
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 11, 71–77.
TL;DR:
Insects are used as a focal system to review the major patterns of responses to urbanization, and a framework for exploring the shared and unique features that characterize insect responses tourbanization is developed and how responses toUrbanization might systematically vary along background environmental gradients in climate is illustrated.

author keywords: Adaptive behaviour; Blattodea; carbohydrate; courtship; developmental cost; fructose; glucose aversion; performance; taste evolution; toxin avoidance
