About this document

Host Shifts in Fusarium-Euwallacea Mutualism by Jose Fernando SN is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes a study that analyzed the evolutionary histories of ambrosia beetles in the genus Euwallacea and their fungal symbionts in the Ambrosia Fusarium Clade (AFC) using phylogenetic methods. The study identified 12 species-level lineages within the AFC and 7 among Euwallacea. Estimates placed the origin of the Euwallacea-Fusarium mutualism around 19-24 million years ago. While most Euwallacea species appear associated with one Fusarium species, two species cultivated two closely related f
