Symbiont Gene Expression Predicts Insect Host's Response to High Temperatures
ABSTRACT Microbial symbionts play crucial roles in host nutrition, defence, and detoxification. However, host‐symbiont interactions are context‐dependent, and environmental stressors can disrupt these benefits. Diverse hosts, including corals, insects and leguminous plants, have been shown to suffer under thermal stress due to the negative impact of ...

Arboviral diseases spread by Culicoides biting midges have been introduced into Europe by unknown means. A possible route is the carriage of midges with cut flowers shipped to flower markets. We sampled Culicoides in and around a cut flower farm in Kenya; midges were caught in the vicinity and a greenhouse, but not where flowers are processed.

Summary It is broadly accepted that viruses are often commensals or conditional mutualists of plants, a concept based on results of experiments under controlled conditions with scarce evidence from studies of plants infected in the field. Demonstrating that plant viruses are mutualists, commensals, or pathogens in nature, and identifying under which ...

ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes can form a hydrophobic barrier on aerial plant surfaces, which is essential for mediating plant‐environment interactions by providing protection against both biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, a cuticular wax mutant (gl) was identified and characterised in Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum L.), exhibiting a functional ...
