Host-driven evolution of PCV2: insights into genetic diversity and adaptation by Giovanni Franzo, Matteo Legnardi, Francesca Poletto, Riccardo Baston, Mattia Cecchinato, Michele Drigo, Claudia Maria Tucciarone

“…This study explores the evolutionary mechanisms influencing PCV2 variability, emphasizing the role of viral features and host environment.MethodsAn extensive collection of globally available ORF2 sequences of the main PCV2 genotypes (i.e., PCV2a, PCV2b, and PCV2d) sampled from wild boars and domestic pigs was analyzed, using a combination of phylodynamic approaches and biostatistical methods to infer the presence and patterns of selective pressures in different virus population subsets.ResultsSignificant differences were observed between strains collected from domestic and wild populations, with the former appearing to be under stronger selective pressures at specific capsid positions. …”

Introducing undergraduate students to human evolution through eco-immunology by Meena M. Balgopal, Meena M. Balgopal, Jennifer L. Neuwald, Jennifer L. Neuwald, Sumali Pandey

“…IntroductionThe benefits of actively engaging students is especially relevant for teaching undergraduate students about evolutionary processes and content. Examining eco-immunological data can help students overcome the naïve conception that humans are not evolving or affected by evolutionary pressures.MethodsHere, we used graphical reasoning in two evolution courses (small/honors and large/regular) to teach students about eco-immunology in humans and non-human organisms during a unit on the evolution of life-history traits. …”
