Limited variation in microbial communities across populations of Macrosteles leafhoppers (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae)

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2024.
Our study demonstrates that concurrent analysis of marker genes effectively detects genetic diversity and parasitoid infections and confirms the presence of nutritional endosymbionts. Notably, we observed intermittent infections involving Rickettsia, Wolbachia, and Phytoplasma, alongside the identification of new endosymbionts.
