Mutualism at the leading edge: Insights into the eco-evolutionary dynamics of host-symbiont communities during range expansion

Abstract: The evolution of mutualism between host and symbiont communities plays an essential role in maintaining ecosystem function and should therefore have a profound effect on their dynamics of range expansion. In particular, the presence of mutualistic symbionts at the leading edge should enhance the propagation of host-symbiont communities. Here we develop a theoretical framework that captures the eco-evolutionary dynamics of resource exchange between hosts and symbionts, and their dispersal dynamics in space. We … Show more

“…From an evolutionary point of view, dispersing with or without a symbiont is known to be different, and can lead to different dispersal and trait evolutionary trajectories [153,154]. These effects can occur under both mutualistic and parasitic symbioses [155], but parasitic symbioses are also prone to evolve towards manipulation of host dispersal [156,157]. Unfortunately, similarly detailed analyses involving more realistic meta-food webs are missing.…”

“…Although the field of microbial ecology is growing rapidly, the current literature has focused on understanding how the presence or absence of certain microbes may affect host fitness (Fontaine et al, 2022;Kikuchi et al, 2012;Kohl et al, 2014;Fontaine and Kohl, 2020), without explicitly considering the ecological consequences of this fitness advantage. Only few studies have explored the influence of microbiome-related dynamics on multi-species communities (Martignoni et al, 2023(Martignoni et al, , 2020Daybog and Kolodny, 2022), where studies considering how variations in microbial communities may affect invasion have primarily dealt with the transmission of pathogens, rather than with the exchange of mutualistic microbes (Gruber et al, 2019;Faillace et al, 2017). Here we present a theoretical framework to investigate the possibility that microbiome sharing, between and within species, would alter the dynamics of invasion by conferring rapid ecological adaptation to invaders.…”
