--- _id: '9704' abstract: - lang: eng text: Emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) have contributed significantly to the current biodiversity crisis, leading to widespread epidemics and population loss. Owing to genetic variation in pathogen virulence, a complete understanding of species decline requires the accurate identification and characterization of EIDs. We explore this issue in the Western honeybee, where increasing mortality of populations in the Northern Hemisphere has caused major concern. Specifically, we investigate the importance of genetic identity of the main suspect in mortality, deformed wing virus (DWV), in driving honeybee loss. Using laboratory experiments and a systematic field survey, we demonstrate that an emerging DWV genotype (DWV-B) is more virulent than the established DWV genotype (DWV-A) and is widespread in the landscape. Furthermore, we show in a simple model that colonies infected with DWV-B collapse sooner than colonies infected with DWV-A. We also identify potential for rapid DWV evolution by revealing extensive genome-wide recombination in vivo. The emergence of DWV-B in naive honeybee populations, including via recombination with DWV-A, could be of significant ecological and economic importance. Our findings emphasize that knowledge of pathogen genetic identity and diversity is critical to understanding drivers of species decline. article_processing_charge: No author: - first_name: Dino full_name: Mcmahon, Dino last_name: Mcmahon - first_name: Myrsini full_name: Natsopoulou, Myrsini last_name: Natsopoulou - first_name: Vincent full_name: Doublet, Vincent last_name: Doublet - first_name: Matthias full_name: Fürst, Matthias id: 393B1196-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Fürst orcid: 0000-0002-3712-925X - first_name: Silvio full_name: Weging, Silvio last_name: Weging - first_name: Mark full_name: Brown, Mark last_name: Brown - first_name: Andreas full_name: Gogol Döring, Andreas last_name: Gogol Döring - first_name: Robert full_name: Paxton, Robert last_name: Paxton citation: ama: 'Mcmahon D, Natsopoulou M, Doublet V, et al.

Yet, to date, the underlying genetic mechanisms and associated trait functions that are unique to rapid coevolutionary change are generally unknown. We here combined experimental evolution of the bacterial biocontrol agent Bacillus thuringiensis and its nematode host Caenorhabditis elegans with large-scale phenotyping, whole genome analysis, and functional genetics to demonstrate the selective benefit of pathogen virulence and the underlying toxin genes during the adaptation process. We show that: (i) high virulence was specifically favoured during pathogen–host coevolution rather than pathogen one-sided adaptation to a nonchanging host or to an environment without host; (ii) the pathogen genotype BT-679 with known nematocidal toxin genes and high virulence specifically swept to fixation in all of the independent replicate populations under coevolution but only some under one-sided adaptation; (iii) high virulence in the BT-679-dominated populations correlated with elevated copy numbers of the plasmid containing the nematocidal toxin genes; (iv) loss of virulence in a toxin-plasmid lacking BT-679 isolate was reconstituted by genetic reintroduction or external addition of the toxins.We conclude that sustained coevolution is distinct from unidirectional selection in shaping the pathogen''s genome and life history characteristics. To our knowledge, this study is the first to characterize the pathogen genes involved in coevolutionary adaptation in an animal host–pathogen interaction system.' acknowledgement: We are very grateful for funding from the German Science Foundation (DFG) to HS (SCHU 1415/8, SCHU 1415/9), PR (RO 2994/3), EBB (BO 2544/7), HL (LI 1690/2), AT (TE 976/2), RDS (SCHU 2522/1), JK (KU 1929/4); from the Kiel Excellence Cluster Inflammation at Interfaces to HS and PR; and from the ISTFELLOW program (Co-fund Marie Curie Actions of the European Commission) to LM. author: - first_name: Leila full_name: El Masri, Leila id: 349A6E66-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: El Masri - first_name: Antoine full_name: Branca, Antoine last_name: Branca - first_name: Anna full_name: Sheppard, Anna last_name: Sheppard - first_name: Andrei full_name: Papkou, Andrei last_name: Papkou - first_name: David full_name: Laehnemann, David last_name: Laehnemann - first_name: Patrick full_name: Guenther, Patrick last_name: Guenther - first_name: Swantje full_name: Prahl, Swantje last_name: Prahl - first_name: Manja full_name: Saebelfeld, Manja last_name: Saebelfeld - first_name: Jacqueline full_name: Hollensteiner, Jacqueline last_name: Hollensteiner - first_name: Heiko full_name: Liesegang, Heiko last_name: Liesegang - first_name: Elzbieta full_name: Brzuszkiewicz, Elzbieta last_name: Brzuszkiewicz - first_name: Rolf full_name: Daniel, Rolf last_name: Daniel - first_name: Nico full_name: Michiels, Nico last_name: Michiels - first_name: Rebecca full_name: Schulte, Rebecca last_name: Schulte - first_name: Joachim full_name: Kurtz, Joachim last_name: Kurtz - first_name: Philip full_name: Rosenstiel, Philip last_name: Rosenstiel - first_name: Arndt full_name: Telschow, Arndt last_name: Telschow - first_name: Erich full_name: Bornberg Bauer, Erich last_name: Bornberg Bauer - first_name: Hinrich full_name: Schulenburg, Hinrich last_name: Schulenburg citation: ama: 'El Masri L, Branca A, Sheppard A, et al.

Nevertheless, basic knowledge about such parameters is often missing from the literature, even for well-studied bacteria, such as Bacillus thuringiensis, an endospore-forming insect pathogen, which infects its hosts via the oral route. To characterize bacterial replication success, we made use of an experimental oral infection system for the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum and developed a flow cytometric assay for the quantification of both spore ingestion by the individual beetle larvae and the resulting spore load after bacterial replication and resporulation within cadavers. On average, spore numbers increased 460-fold, showing that Bacillus thuringiensis grows and replicates successfully in insect cadavers. By inoculating cadaver-derived spores and spores from bacterial stock cultures into nutrient medium, we next investigated outgrowth characteristics of vegetative cells and found that cadaver- derived bacteria showed reduced growth compared to bacteria from the stock cultures. Interestingly, this reduced growth was a consequence of inhibited spore germination, probably originating from the host and resulting in reduced host mortality in subsequent infections by cadaver-derived spores. Nevertheless, we further showed that Bacillus thuringiensis transmission was possible via larval cannibalism when no other food was offered. These results contribute to our understanding of the ecology of Bacillus thuringiensis as an insect pathogen. author: - first_name: Barbara full_name: Milutinovic, Barbara id: 2CDC32B8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Milutinovic orcid: 0000-0002-8214-4758 - first_name: Christina full_name: Höfling, Christina last_name: Höfling - first_name: Momir full_name: Futo, Momir last_name: Futo - first_name: Jörn full_name: Scharsack, Jörn last_name: Scharsack - first_name: Joachim full_name: Kurtz, Joachim last_name: Kurtz citation: ama: 'Milutinovic B, Höfling C, Futo M, Scharsack J, Kurtz J.

The articles that follow cover research on societies ranging from insects to humans. Variation in measures of fitness (i.e. survival and reproduction) has been linked to various aspects of sociality in humans and animals alike, and variability in individual health and condition has been recognized as a key mediator of these relationships. Viewed from a broad evolutionary perspective, the evolutionary transitions from a solitary lifestyle to group living have resulted in several new health-related costs and benefits of sociality. Social transmission of parasites within groups represents a major cost of group living, but some behavioural mechanisms, such as grooming, have evolved repeatedly to reduce this cost. Group living also has created novel costs in terms of altered susceptibility to infectious and non-infectious disease as a result of the unavoidable physiological consequences of social competition and integration, which are partly alleviated by social buffering in some vertebrates. Here, we define the relevant aspects of sociality, summarize their health-related costs and benefits, and discuss possible fitness measures in different study systems. Given the pervasive effects of social factors on health and fitness, we propose a synthesis of existing conceptual approaches in disease ecology, ecological immunology and behavioural neurosciences by adding sociality as a key factor, with the goal to generate a broader framework for organismal integration of health-related research. acknowledgement: We thank the German Research Foundation (DFG), the Ministry of Science and Culture of Lower-Saxony (MWK Hannover) and the German Primate Centre (DPZ) for their support of the 9.

Nevertheless, theoretical investigations of their particular life history are scarce. We develop a model that takes into account the main distinguishing features between traditionally studied diseases and obligate killing pathogens, like the (biocontrol-relevant) insect-pathogenic fungi Metarhizium and Beauveria. First, obligate killing entomopathogenic fungi produce new infectious particles (conidiospores) only after host death and not yet on the living host. Second, the killing rates of entomopathogenic fungi depend strongly on the initial exposure dosage, thus we explicitly consider the pathogen load of individual hosts. Further, we make the model applicable not only to solitary host species, but also to group living species by incorporating social interactions between hosts, like the collective disease defences of insect societies. Our results identify the optimal killing rate for the pathogen that minimises its invasion threshold. Furthermore, we find that the rate of contact between hosts has an ambivalent effect: dense interaction networks between individuals are considered to facilitate disease outbreaks because of increased pathogen transmission. In social insects, this is compensated by their collective disease defences, i.e., social immunity. For the type of pathogens considered here, we show that even without social immunity, high contact rates between live individuals dilute the pathogen in the host colony and hence can reduce individual pathogen loads below disease-causing levels.' author: - first_name: Sebastian full_name: Novak, Sebastian id: 461468AE-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Novak - first_name: Sylvia full_name: Cremer, Sylvia id: 2F64EC8C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Cremer orcid: 0000-0002-2193-3868 citation: ama: 'Novak S, Cremer S.
