Extensive genetic diversity of Rickettsiales bacteria in multiple mosquito species [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2016
AbstractRickettsiales are important zoonotic pathogens, causing severe disease in humans globally. Although mosquitoes are an important vector for diverse pathogens, with the exception of members of the genusWolbachialittle is known about their role in the transmission of Rickettsiales.

The effects of environmental conditions on quorum sensing and community interactions in coral-associated bacteria [PDF]

, 2013
The coral holobiont contains diverse communities of bacteria that play a role in the maintenance of coral ecosystems, however little is known about the structure and conservation of the host-bacterial relationship.

Comparative Genomics of the Endosymbiont Cardinium Causing Reproductive Manipulation in Encarsia Parasitoid Wasps

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
We assembled four Cardinium hertigii draft genomes: cEina3 causes cytoplasmic incompatibility, cEhis1 induces parthenogenesis, cEper2 is associated with parthenogenesis, and cEina2 infects asymptomatically. All four strains are closely related and hosted by Encarsia parasitoid wasps, but key differences exist, including their metabolic potential and ...

Comparative susceptibility of mosquito populations in North Queensland, Australia to oral infection with dengue virus. [PDF]

, 2014
Dengue is the most prevalent arthropod-borne virus, with at least 40% of the world's population at risk of infection each year. In Australia, dengue is not endemic, but viremic travelers trigger outbreaks involving hundreds of cases.

Positive Interactions Under Ocean Warming and Acidification: Crustose Coralline Algae Holobionts Enhance Gorgonian Larval Settlement Under Climate Change

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 12, December 2025.
Crustose coralline algae (CCA) are key for the settlement of the larvae of the Mediterranean white gorgonian, Eunicella singularis, especially after treatment under future climate change conditions. CCA also influence larval microbiome development. (A) Enhanced larval settlement is driven by bacterial breakdown and utilisation of CCA polysaccharides ...

Limited genomic signatures of population collapse in the critically endangered black abalone (Haliotis cracherodii)

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
Abstract The black abalone, Haliotis cracherodii, is a large, long‐lived marine mollusc that inhabits rocky intertidal habitats along the coast of California and Mexico. In 1985, populations were impacted by a bacterial disease known as withering syndrome (WS) that wiped out >90% of individuals, leading to the closure of all U.S.

The rhizome of Reclinomonas americana, Homo sapiens, Pediculus humanus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondria

Biology Direct, 2011
Background Mitochondria are thought to have evolved from eubacteria-like endosymbionts; however, the origin of the mitochondrion remains a subject of debate.

Primary and Secondary Symbionts of Cambodian Cicadellidae and the Role of Parasitisation

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2025.
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.

Flagellar movement in two bacteria of the family rickettsiaceae: a re-evaluation of motility in an evolutionary perspective. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Bacteria of the family Rickettsiaceae have always been largely studied not only for their importance in the medical field, but also as model systems in evolutionary biology. In fact, they share a recent common ancestor with mitochondria. The most studied
