Primary and Secondary Symbionts of Cambodian Cicadellidae and the Role of Parasitisation
Leafhoppers are key agricultural pests, and their interactions with parasitoids may be influenced by microbial symbionts. In this study, we characterized the bacterial communities of six Cambodian leafhopper species and their parasitoids, finding that while Sulcia dominates leafhopper microbiotas, parasitoids exhibit higher microbial diversity.

Abstract As an ecological unit, the rhizosphere microbiome preserves an enormous and largely unexplored diversity of microbes that play essential roles in plant health and soil functions. Omics technologies encompassing high‐throughput approaches such as metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, and metaproteomics provide helpful tools to unravel the ...

Abstract Agricultural netting is increasingly used as a sustainable pest control alternative to chemical pesticides, aiming to protect crops while minimizing environmental and health impacts. However, the effects of such netting on microbial communities, particularly on fruits destined for fermentation like apples, remain underexplored.

Symbiosis in an overlooked microcosm: a systematic review of the bacterial flora of mites [PDF]
A dataset of bacterial diversity found in mites was compiled from 193 publications (from 1964 to January 2015). A total of 143 mite species belonging to the 3 orders (Mesostigmata, Sarcoptiformes and Trombidiformes) were recorded and found to be ...

Specific plasmid patterns and high rates of bacterial co-occurrence within the coral holobiont [PDF]
Despite the importance of coral microbiomes for holobiont persistence, the interactions among these arenot well understood. In particular, knowledge of the co-occurrence and taxonomic importance of specific members of the microbial core, as well as ...

Pathogens are known to survive in compost and to regrow under the influence of certain factors, such as moisture content, temperature and nutrient availability. Dead biomass, by providing available nutrients, is a factor that may affect pathogen regrowth.

Tetracycline-resistance encoding plasmids from Paenibacillus larvae, the causal agent of American foulbrood disease, isolated from commercial honeys [PDF]
Paenibacillus larvae, the causal agent of American foulbrood disease in honeybees, acquires tetracycline-resistance via native plasmids carrying known tetracycline-resistance determinants. From three P. larvae tetracycline-resistant strains isolated from
