Curious about how pathogen responds to host resistance and climate change simultaneously? Elevated O3 increases Xanthomonas diversity and severity on resistant peppers. w/ @nehapotnis 📷: Fig. 1 at https://t.co/AxINXlEuB0

Despite this variability, we find signatures of parallel evolution, which can provide clues to the long-term evolutionary processes shaping the pathogen population in this arms race.

Our results indicate that climatic fluctuations can modify the endemic disease risk and the pathogen adapts to these climatic shifts by maintaining diversity of co-occurring lineages that show variable fitness levels under changing climatic conditions.

In this manuscript, we present an integrated approach using metagenomics to systematically study within-species variation in pathogen population and use epidemiological modeling to link the risk factors to the eco-evolutionary processes driving the disease epidemics.

This work led by graduate students, @hreeshee, @Amanpreet089, Ivory Russell, @DestinyBrokaw, and Ogonnaya Romanus was a huge effort, both in terms of gathering the field samples and wrangling with the big data.

Thanks to the JGI CSP program for supporting sequencing of a collection of nonpathogenic xanthomonads, a largely ignored group! We used a powerful association approach to understand how xanthomonads may have established association with the plants across a continuum of lifestyles

Preprint alert! How does pathogen population respond when challenged with host defense and ozone stress? Can we predict pathogen evolution under altered environment? We seek answers to these questions in this manuscript.

Great webinar today with @hreeshee and special guest @nehapotnis from @AuburnU about how the Biotic and abiotic stress distinctly drive the phyllosphere microbial community structure. You can rewatch it here https://t.co/qXv5eTFNfH
