Endosymbiotic Fungal Diversity and Dynamics of the Brown Planthopper across Developmental Stages, Tissues, and Sexes Revealed Using Circular Consensus Sequencing

open access: yesInsects
Endosymbiotic fungi play an important role in the growth and development of insects. Understanding the endosymbiont communities hosted by the brown planthopper (BPH; Nilaparvata lugens Stål), the most destructive pest in rice, is a prerequisite for ...

The Effect of Density-Dependent Phase on the Locust Gut Bacterial Composition

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The desert locust demonstrates density-dependent phase polyphenism: For extended periods it appears in a non-aggregating, non-migrating phenotype, known as the solitary phase. When circumstances change, solitary individuals may aggregate and transform to

Aphid Protected from Pathogen by Endosymbiont

open access: yesScience, 2005
Aphids are associated with several facultative bacterial endosymbionts that may influence their interactions with other organisms. We show here that one of the three most common facultative symbionts of pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum), the bacterium Regiella insecticola, has a major effect on host resistance to a fungal pathogen.

Metabolic modeling of endosymbiont genome reduction on a temporal scale

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2011
A fundamental challenge in Systems Biology is whether a cell‐scale metabolic model can predict patterns of genome evolution by realistically accounting for associated biochemical constraints.

Rickettsial infection in ticks infesting wild birds from two eco-regions of Argentina

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária
Several tick-borne Rickettsia species are recognized human pathogens in Argentina. Here we evaluated rickettsial infection in ticks collected on passerine birds during 2011-2012 in two eco-regions of Argentina.

Ticks without borders: microbiome of immature neotropical tick species parasitizing migratory songbirds along northern Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
IntroductionThe long-distance, seasonal migrations of birds make them an effective ecological bridge for the movement of ticks. The introduction of exotic tick species to new geographical regions can cause the emergence of novel tick-borne pathogens ...
