From Inquilines to Gall Inducers: Genomic Signature of a Life-Style Transition in Synergus Gall Wasps [PDF]

Genome Biology and Evolution, 2020
Abstract Gall wasps (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) induce complex galls on oaks, roses, and other plants, but the mechanism of gall induction is still unknown. Here, we take a comparative genomic approach to revealing the genetic basis of gall induction. We focus on Synergus itoensis, a species that induces galls inside oak acorns.

Phylogeny, Evolution and Classification of Gall Wasps: The Plot Thickens

PLOS ONE, 2015
Gall wasps (Cynipidae) represent the most spectacular radiation of gall-inducing insects. In addition to true gall formers, gall wasps also include phytophagous inquilines, which live inside the galls induced by gall wasps or other insects. Here we present the first comprehensive molecular and total-evidence analyses of higher-level gall wasp ...

The effects of a new gall midge in the Panamanian fig/fig wasp mutualism

, 2022
The mutualism between the fig tree and the fig wasp pollinator is an important keystone interaction for tropical forests. However, many antagonistic and parasitic species take advantage of the fig/fig wasp mutualism.

Behavioral, Ecological, and Morphological Data Suggest a Close Relationship Between the Ant Colobopsis truncata and the Gall Wasp Aphelonyx cerricola

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Aphelonyx cerricola and the different stages that make this gall colonizable by ants. ABSTRACT Wasps of the family Cynipidae are known to induce galls of a species‐specific morphology, which during senescence provide a refuge for secondary insect fauna, especially ants.

Susceptibility of 18 eucalypt species to the gall wasp Leptocybe invasa in the nursery and young plantations in Vietnam [PDF]

, 2009
The gall wasp, Leptocybe invasa, is a devastating pest of eucalypt plantations, woodlots, and urban trees in the Middle East, the Mediterranean basin, Africa, India, South-East Asia, and China. It was first observed in Israel in 2000 and has since spread

Repetitive N-WASP–binding elements of the Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Effector EspFU Synergistically Activate Actin Assembly [PDF]

, 2008
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) generate F-actin–rich adhesion pedestals by delivering effector proteins into mammalian cells. These effectors include the translocated receptor Tir, along with EspFU, a protein that associates indirectly with ...
