An introduction to phylosymbiosis

Abstract: Phylosymbiosis was recently formulated to support a hypothesis-driven framework for the characterization of a new, cross-system trend in host-associated microbiomes. Defining phylosymbiosis as “microbial community relationships that recapitulate the phylogeny of their host”, we review the relevant literature and data in the last decade, emphasizing frequently used methods and regular patterns observed in analyses. Quantitative support for phylosymbiosis is provided by statistical methods evaluating higher micr… Show more

“…In other words, as host genetic differences increase over time, differences in the structure of host-associated microbial communities will also increase [7]. Detailed descriptions of phylosymbiosis and how it is measured have been reviewed elsewhere [10]. Importantly, phylosymbiosis is different from codiversification in that the microbiome dendrogram is of microbial community structures, not of specific microbes (though this can be the case and will be discussed more below).…”

“…The abundant and diverse microbial communities present within and on the surface of animal bodies, i.e., the microbiomes, play a central role in the fitness of their host, providing benefits that include successful development of the immune system and protection against pathogens, but also enhanced food processing and nutrient absorption (McKenney et al, 2018a;Moran et al, 2019). These long histories of animalmicrobes interactions resulted for many clades in phylosymbiosis, i.e., the eco-evolutionary pattern where phylogenetically related hosts tend to have more similar microbiomes than distantly related ones (Brooks et al, 2016;Lim and Bordenstein, 2019). Further, phylosymbiosis signal in the gut microbiome was shown to be stronger when hosts share a recent common ancestor (i.e., intra clade) than when shared ancestry is more ancient (i.e., inter clades) (Groussin et al, 2017).…”

“…Although many animals exhibit phylosymbiosis, the strength of the phylosymbiotic signature may differ (9,11,(15)(16)(17)(18). For example, both the gut bacterial community and the virome of Nasonia wasps have been shown to exhibit a strong phylosymbiotic signature and to exhibit functional phylosymbiosis, such that host development and survival are impacted by phylosymbiotic associations (9,16,(18)(19)(20). In contrast, Drosophila fruit flies exhibit mixed evidence for phylosymbiosis (9,(21)(22)(23).…”
