Evolution of Escherichia coli rifampicin resistance in an antibiotic-free environment during thermal stress

Editor’s summary
E. coli can develop resistance to the antibiotic rifampicin, even in the absence of the drug, if grown in a thermally stressed environment, suggesting that antibiotic resistance is not always costly for bacteria to maintain.

Simulating gene trees under the multispecies coalescent and time-dependent migration

Abstract | Provisional PDF

Editor’s summary
New software that can simulate gene trees under a multispecies coalescent model with migration between subspecies shows that although inference of species tree topologies can be robust to gene flow, even detecting the presence of migration is difficult.

Editor’s summary
Phylogenetic analysis of a single opsin gene in birds shows that their vision has shifted between the visible spectrum and UV-sensitive vision at least 14 times, each of which can be explained by a single nucleotide change.
