A Rickettsiella Endosymbiont Is a Potential Source of Essential B-Vitamins for the Poultry Red Mite, Dermanyssus gallinae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Many obligate blood-sucking arthropods rely on symbiotic bacteria to provision essential B vitamins that are either missing or at sub-optimal levels in their nutritionally challenging blood diet.

Cryopreservation of the gorgonian endosymbiont Symbiodinium [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2016
AbstractThe study focused on finding a suitable cryoprotectant (CPA) and an optimum freezing protocol for the cryopreservation of the endosymbiotic dinoflagellates (Symbiodinium, clade G) of Junceella fragilis wherein the success of experiments is crucial to both scientific and ecology studies. A two-step freezing technique was developed. The viability

A Comparative Genomic Approach to Determine the Virulence Factors and Horizontal Gene Transfer Events of Clinical Acanthamoeba Isolates

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Acanthamoeba species are among the most ubiquitous protists that are widespread in soil and water and act as both a replicative niche and vectors for dispersal. They are the most important human intracellular pathogens, causing Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK)

Tardigrade Community Microbiomes in North American Orchards Include Putative Endosymbionts and Plant Pathogens

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The microbiome of tardigrades, a phylum of microscopic animals best known for their ability to survive extreme conditions, is poorly studied worldwide and completely unknown in North America. An improved understanding of tardigrade-associated bacteria is

Endosymbion microbials low abundance of Nilaparvata lugens (Stal) (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) from Indonesia rice production center based on metagenomic study using 16Sr RNA [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
Insects have a long history of association with endosymbiont microbes. There are several indications that endosymbiont microbes are associated with insects and participate in the degradation of organic and inorganic molecules.

Symbiotic Life of Echinoderm Larvae

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Echinoderm larvae have served as a fundamental system for understanding development and life history evolution over much of the last century. In the last few decades, our understanding of echinoderm larvae has expanded to the microbiota that they ...

Rhizobiales as functional and endosymbiontic members in the lichen symbiosis of Lobaria pulmonaria L.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Rhizobiales (Alphaproteobacteria) are well-known beneficial partners in plant-microbe interactions. Less is known about the occurrence and function of Rhizobiales in the lichen symbiosis, although it has previously been shown that Alphaproteobacteria are

Spatially Varying Wolbachia Frequencies Reveal the Invasion Origin of an Agricultural Pest Recently Introduced From Europe to North America

Evolutionary Applications
The introduction of non‐native species across the world represents a major global challenge. Retracing invasion origin is an important first step in understanding the invasion process, often requiring detailed sampling within the native range.
