Insects as Natural Hosts, Vectors and Reservoirs of Botulinum Neurotoxin‐Producing Clostridia and Their Non‐Toxinogenic Counterparts: Preliminary Evidence

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2025.
The ecology of botulinum neurotoxin‐producing Clostridia bacteria and their non‐toxinogenic phylogenetic counterparts remains unclear. This study explored the current literature, mine > 5000 SRA samples, and provide a pilot feeding experiment in a butterfly, to propose evidence of the interconnection between Clostridia and insects.
