The Very Long Chain Fatty Acid (C26:25OH) Linked to the Lipid A Is Important for the Fitness of the Photosynthetic Bradyrhizobium Strain ORS278 and the Establishment of a Successful Symbiosis with Aeschynomene Legumes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
In rhizobium strains, the lipid A is modified by the addition of a very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) shown to play an important role in rigidification of the outer membrane, thereby facilitating their dual life cycle, outside and inside the plant.

Contrasting patterns of Asaia association with Plasmodium falciparum between field-collected Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii from Cameroon

Microbiology Spectrum
The widespread prevalence of Asaia in mosquitoes makes it a potential candidate for paratrangenic control in Anopheles. To better understand whether this bacterium could be used for malaria control, we quantified Asaia in An.
