Global Distribution of Carbohydrate Utilization Potential in the Prokaryotic Tree of Life by Rubén López-Mondéjar, Vojtěch Tláskal, Ulisses Nunes da Rocha, Petr Baldrian

“…IMPORTANCE This study expanded our knowledge of the phylogenetic distribution of carbohydrate-active enzymes across prokaryotic tree of life, including new phyla where the carbohydrate-active enzymes composition have not been described until now and demonstrated the potential for carbohydrate utilization of numerous yet uncultured phyla. …”

Biodiversity communication in the digital era through the Emoji tree of life by Stefano Mammola, Mattia Falaschi, Gentile Francesco Ficetola

“…Nevertheless, the ability of emojis to represent the Earth’s tree of life remains unexplored. Here, we quantified the taxonomic comprehensiveness of currently available nature-related emojis and tested whether the expanding availability of emojis enables a better coverage of extant biodiversity. …”

Is Host Filtering the Main Driver of Phylosymbiosis across the Tree of Life? by Florent Mazel, Katherine M. Davis, Andrew Loudon, Waldan K. Kwong, Mathieu Groussin, Laura Wegener Parfrey

“…Here, we use simulations to provide a simple expectation for when we should expect this pattern to occur and then review the literature to document the prevalence and strength of phylosymbiosis across the host tree of life. We demonstrate that phylosymbiosis can readily emerge from a simple ecological filtering process, whereby a given host trait (e.g., gut pH) that varies with host phylogeny (i.e., harbors a phylogenetic signal) filters preadapted microbes. …”

Danger signals - damaged-self recognition across the tree of life by Martin eHeil, Walter G Land

“…Ca2+- fluxes, membrane depolarization, the liberation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling cascades are the ubiquitous molecular mechanisms that act downstream of the PRRs in organisms across the tree of life. Damaged-self recognition contains both homologous and analogous elements and is likely to have evolved in all eukaryotic kingdoms, because all organisms found the same solutions for the same problem: damage must be recognized without depending on enemy-derived molecules and responses to the non-self must be directed specifically against detrimental invaders.…”
