Factors influencing in vitro infectivity and growth of Rickettsia peacockii (Rickettsiales: Rickettsiaceae), an endosymbiont of the Rocky Mountain wood tick, Dermacentor andersoni (Acari, Ixodidae) [PDF]
Rickettsia peacockii, a spotted fever group rickettsia, is a transovarially transmitted endosymbiont of Rocky Mountain wood ticks, Dermacentor andersoni. This rickettsia, formerly known as the East Side Agent and restricted to female ticks, was detected in a chronically infected embryonic cell line, DAE100, from D. andersoni.

Primary and Secondary Symbionts of Cambodian Cicadellidae and the Role of Parasitisation
Leafhoppers are key agricultural pests, and their interactions with parasitoids may be influenced by microbial symbionts. In this study, we characterized the bacterial communities of six Cambodian leafhopper species and their parasitoids, finding that while Sulcia dominates leafhopper microbiotas, parasitoids exhibit higher microbial diversity.
