Ecological drift during colonization drives within-host and between-host heterogeneity in an animal-associated symbiont.
Specialized host-microbe symbioses canonically show greater diversity than expected from simple models, both at the population level and within individual hosts. To understand how this heterogeneity arises, we utilize the squash bug, Anasa tristis, and its bacterial symbionts in the genus Caballeron...
