    Michiel Vos
    Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, Oxford OX1 3PS, UK
    Science 325:833. 2009
    ..This study demonstrates the importance of biotic interactions for the small-scale spatial structuring of microbial genetic diversity in soil...
  3. ncbi Social conflict in centimeter-and global-scale populations of the bacterium Myxococcus xanthus
    Michiel Vos
    Department of Microbial Ecology, Netherlands Institute of Ecology, GA Heteren, The Netherlands
    Curr Biol 19:1763-7. 2009
    ..Such nonself exclusion may serve to direct the benefits of cooperation to close kin within diverse populations in which the probability of social conflict among neighbors is high...
  4. ncbi A species concept for bacteria based on adaptive divergence
    Michiel Vos
    Department of Microbial Ecology, Netherlands Institute of Ecology NIOO KNAW, 6666 GA Heteren, The Netherlands
    Trends Microbiol 19:1-7. 2011
    ..More than a method for classification, the concept of adaptive divergence can be used in a 'reverse ecology' approach to identify lineages that are in the process of speciation or genes involved in initial adaptive divergence...
  5. ncbi Siderophore-mediated cooperation and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
    Angus Buckling
    Department of Zoology, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK
    FEMS Microbiol Ecol 62:135-41. 2007
    ..Fourth, cooperative pyoverdin production is also shown to be favoured by kin selection in vivo (caterpillars), and results in more virulent infections. Finally, we briefly outline ongoing and future work using this experimental system...

    Michiel Vos
    Department of Microbial Ecology, Netherlands Institute of Ecology NIOO KNAW, Wageningen, The Netherlands
    PLoS ONE 7:e30600. 2012
    ..Because the higher genetic resolution of the rpoB gene prohibits its use as a universal marker, we employed consensus-degenerate primers targeting the Proteobacteria...
