AbstractScience is as dynamic the world around us. Our ideas continually change, do approaches we use to study science. Few things remain invariant in this changing landscape, but a fascination with pattern and process one that has endured throughout history of Paying homage long-held tradition, 2023 Vice Presidential Symposium American Society Naturalists focused on role ecology evolution. It brought together group early-career researchers working topics ranging from genetic diversity microbes patterns species interactions geological record. Their work spanned taxonomic spectrum mammals, temporal dimension Cenozoic present, manipulative experiments comparative approaches. In introductory article, I discuss how these diverse are linked by common thread elucidating processes underlying they collectively generate novel insights into maintenance at different levels organization.

AbstractHost organisms can harbor microbial symbionts that defend them from pathogen infection in addition to the resistance encoded by host genome. Here, we investigated how variation defenses, generated genetic background and symbiont presence, affects emergence of diversity across evolutionary time. We passaged opportunistic
