Endosymbiosis allows Sitophilus oryzae to persist in dry conditions
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Insects frequently associate with intracellular microbial symbionts (endosymbionts) that enhance their ability to cope with challenging environmental conditions. Endosymbioses with cuticle-enhancing microbes have been reported in several beetle families.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 670-684, July 2026.We assessed Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) performance on five common pasture plant species. Larvae consumed more dock, plantain and chicory per day than red or white clover, but with lower conversion efficiencies. Feeding on red clover reduced weights and egg laying, and lengthened development times compared with plantain.
