Rapid evolution of a novel protective symbiont into keystone taxon in Caenorhabditis elegans microbiota
Abstract Protective microbes have a major role in shaping host–pathogen interactions, but their relative importance in the structure of the host microbiota remains unclear. Here, we used a network approach to characterize the impact of a novel, experimentally evolved ‘protective microbial symbiont’...
