Background Parasitic nematodes have evolved secreted effector proteins which interact with host molecules to modulate the host immune response. These interactions can be highly specific and are under strong selective pressure. Here, we investigate the host-pathogen interaction between Heligmosomoides bakeri and its nat...
In animals, the germline is usually set aside early in development and its genome is protected to ensure faithful transmission of genetic information to future generations. Genetic alterations in somatic cells are not inherited by progeny, and the somatic genome does not have to be protected from change in the same way...

Insight is offered into its population genetics, host associations, and the evolutionary dynamics of a nematode–beetle interaction and how genomic bycatch can reveal previously hidden details about an important species in a complex community is highlighted.
