As a graduate student in the Goodrich-Blair laboratory at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, my research focuses on host specificity factors involved in the formation of mutualistic associations. In collaboration with the Stock and Forst labs, I am analyzing the mutualistic association between the bacterium Xenorhabdus bovienni and its Steinernema sp. nematode hosts. X. bovienni is a broad host range bacterium that can colonize a variety of Steinernema nematode species. My work will determine if X. bovienii strains are adapted to a specific cognate Steinernema host and will identify traits responsible for host specificity. Elucidation of these interactions will lead to a better understanding of factors involved in host range and bacterial adaptation in the Xenorhabdus-Steinernema model system and will yield further insights into factors that influence the stability and evolution of mutually beneficial symbiotic associations |
