DESCRIPTION:Many animal and plant species harbour microbes in their microb
 iota that protect them from parasite infection. These ‘protective microb
 es’ can be a significant component of host defence. Using experimental e
 volution of a novel\, tripartite interaction\, my group has demonstrated t
 hat a costly bacterium living in worms can rapidly evolve to defend their 
 animal hosts against infection by virulent parasites\, thus crossing the p
 arasitism-mutualism continuum. We also show that these protective microbes
  can drive major changes in host tolerance\, parasite virulence and coevol
 utionary dynamics. Our results indicate that the host microbiome is import
 ant in shaping infection outcomes\, now and over evolutionary time. \nSpea
