Biodiversity gradients in obligate symbiotic organisms: exploring the diversity and traits of lichen propagules across the United States
Journal of Biogeography, 43(8), 1667–1678.
Contributors: E. Tripp *, J. Lendemer *, A. Barberán *, R. Dunn n & N. Fierer *
author keywords: diversity; fungi; latitudinal diversity gradient; microbial dispersal; symbiotic; trait; urbanization
TL;DR:
This work presents the first quantitative assessment of how spatial and environmental variables shape the abundance and distribution of obligate symbiotic organisms across nearly an entire subcontinent, using lichen propagules as an example.

Contributors: S. Council, A. Savage *, J. Urban *, M. Ehlers*, J. Pate Skene *, M. Platt *, R. Dunn n , J. Horvath *
author keywords: microbiota; microbe; microbiome; primate; skin; axilla
MeSH headings : Animals; Biodiversity; Biological Evolution; Gorilla gorilla / microbiology; Humans; Macaca mulatta / microbiology; Microbiota; Pan troglodytes / microbiology; Papio / microbiology; Primates / microbiology; RNA, Archaeal / chemistry; RNA, Bacterial / chemistry; RNA, Ribosomal / chemistry; Skin / microbiology
TL;DR:
It is found that human skin microbial communities are unique relative to those of other primates, in terms of both their diversity and their composition.

Arthropods of the great indoors: characterizing diversity inside urban and suburban homes
PeerJ, 4(1), e1582.
Contributors: M. Bertone n , M. Leong*, K. Bayless n, T. Malow*, R. Dunn n & M. Trautwein*
author keywords: Indoor biome; Urban entomology; Entomology; Arthropod; Houses
TL;DR:
High diversity was discovered, with a conservative estimate range of 32–211 morphospecies, and 24–128 distinct arthropod families per house, and some of the most frequently found arthropods in houses are unfamiliar to the general public despite their ubiquity.

Thermal reactionomes reveal divergent responses to thermal extremes in warm and cool-climate ant species
BMC GENOMICS, 17(1).
Contributors: J. Stanton-Geddes*, A. Nguyen *, L. Chick *, J. Vincent*, M. Vangala*, R. Dunn n , A. Ellison *, N. Sanders *, N. Gotelli *, S. Cahan *
author keywords: Aphaenogaster; Gene expression; Plasticity; Reactionome; Transcriptome
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological / genetics; Animals; Ants / genetics; Biological Evolution; Climate; Cold Temperature; Gene Expression Regulation; Genes, Insect; Hot Temperature; Species Specificity; Transcriptome; United States
TL;DR:
Increases in upper thermal limits may require an evolutionary shift in response mechanism away from damage repair toward tolerance and prevention, and no evidence for a trade-off between constitutive and inducible gene expression is found as predicted by the genetic assimilation hypothesis.

Urban stress is associated with variation in microbial species composition-but not richness-in Manhattan
ISME JOURNAL, 10(3), 751–760.
Contributors: A. Reese *, A. Savage *, E. Youngsteadt n, K. Mcguire*, A. Koling*, O. Watkins*, S. Frank n , R. Dunn n
MeSH headings : Bacteria / classification; Bacteria / genetics; Bacteria / isolation & purification; Biodiversity; Ecosystem; Environmental Microbiology; Fungi / classification; Fungi / genetics; Fungi / isolation & purification; Humans; Molecular Sequence Data; New York City; Parks, Recreational; Phylogeny; Stress, Physiological; Urban Health
TL;DR:
The diversity and composition of microbes appears less sensitive to habitat patchiness or urban stress than those of macroorganisms, and may be more resilient to the negative effects of urbanization than has been previously appreciated.
