About this position

Coevolution is the process of species evolving together and influencing each other’s evolutionary path. For a system of microbes and viruses, this entails an ongoing dynamic of the host microbe evading infection and the virus overcoming this protection. However, when fluid flow drives these partners apart, several questions arise: How will past coevolution affect the interactions with new partners? How long do signatures of past coevolution persist? What happens when descendants re-encounter after stretches of isolated evolution, again through fluid flow? Understanding these questions is essen
