Endosymbiosis allows Sitophilus oryzae to persist in dry conditions. [PDF]
Front Microbiol, 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.
