Not easy for mutualists to become vertically transmitted. New theory paper it out in Evolutionary Ecology Research:

Evolution of transmission mode in obligate symbionts

Background: A host obtains symbionts by horizontal transmission when infected from the environment or contagiously from other hosts in the same generation. In contrast, vertical
transmission occurs when a host obtains its symbionts directly from its parents. Either vertical or horizontal transmission can sustain an association between a host and its symbiont.

Question: What evolutionary forces are necessary to evolve from an ancestral state of horizontal transmission to a derived state of vertical transmission?

Conclusions: Epistasis for fitness between host and symbiont genes, like that in a matching alleles model, is a necessary condition for the evolution of vertical from horizontal... more »

You may have seen this in my other channels, but our commentary piece came out in PLOS Biology this week (http://bit.ly/COMPASSreachingoutsci - I'm the corresponding author).

It's a Community Page, which means the point is to talk about who COMPASS is and what we do, but we wanted to go broader than that. We wrote the paper to share our own lessons in scicomm over the past decade and kick off a bigger discussion about where we go from here.  

I organized a mini blog carnival for scientists to talk about their personal stories, experiences, and tough lessons in #scicomm. So far, there are contributions from +Alan Townsend, +Chris Buddle, Don Boesch, +Dawn Wright, +Heather Leslie, Isabelle Côté, Jim Cloern, +Jessica Hellmann, Max Moritz, Ryan Kelly, +Simon Donner, +Steve Palumbi and more to come.

Really excited to start talking about this project publicly! http://bit.ly/GradSciCommSurvey

In short, I'm a co-PI on a new NSF project, tasked with surveying the current state of communication training for science grad students across the country, and then bringing together the best people to talk about how to systemically improve it.

We're inspired by the unmet demand we see, and the fabulous grassroots and institutional efforts to create change.

Calling all grad students who have taken a course or workshop, and all those who organize them: please get in touch or add your data to our brief survey here: http://bit.ly/GradSciCommSurvey

The Return of the Super Science Circle

Okay, I'll admit, I made a mistake in retiring the Super Science Circle. I wasn't wrong; Communities are still the future and the best way to make friends here on Google+. But I realized that the Super Science Circle is simple and efficient way to get new people to see that Google+ isn't a ghost town.

PLEASE SHARE THIS POST... FOR SCIENCE!

When I was attending +ScienceOnline 2013, I must have helped dozens of people join Google+, and the first thing I had them do was import this circle. It's an invaluable tool for getting new people up to speed.

So, I just did a complete refresh on the circle. I examined every single member and judged them according to my two-part criteria:

1. Active in the last 30 days or so.
2. Regularly post on scientific topics.

Evolution of a Species

Assortive Mating: The diversity of lifeforms on our planet is central to evolution. But how do new species form? A key step is assortive mating, when individuals use physical or vocal cues to choose mates that resemble themselves. Perhaps natural selection favors offspring from similar matings. Eventually, the populations diverge genetically to the extent that the hybrids are unfit, and separate species emerge.

Caught in the act? Take the curious case of the Australian Gouldian finch (Erythrura gouldiae). There are black and red head color morphs (see image) that prefer to mate with like types. This preference is genetic, as chicks reared by foster parents of different type still prefer to mate with their own head color morph. In fact, the head color and mating preference are tightly linked on the sex chromosome Z (males are ZZand... more »
