Generality of toxins in defensive symbiosis: Ribosome-inactivating proteins and defense against parasitic wasps in Drosophila.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2017
While it has become increasingly clear that multicellular organisms often harbor microbial symbionts that protect their hosts against natural enemies, the mechanistic underpinnings underlying most defensive symbioses are largely unknown.

RT-qPCR confirmation of Spiroplasma infection status of samples used for vertical transmission experiments.

open access: yes, 2021
Ten Spiroplasma negative samples and two Spiroplasma positive samples (as determined by endpoint PCR described in the Materials and Methods) were randomly selected for this analysis (describe in the Materials and Methods, subsection ‘Laboratory ...

Comparative genome analysis of Spiroplasma melliferum IPMB4A, a honeybee-associated bacterium

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2013
Background The genus Spiroplasma contains a group of helical, motile, and wall-less bacteria in the class Mollicutes. Similar to other members of this class, such as the animal-pathogenic Mycoplasma and the plant-pathogenic ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma’, all ...

Effects of fly infection state (Spiroplasma-infected vs. Spiroplasma-free), fly strain (isoline) and their interaction, for each of the survival measures.

open access: yes, 2013
Based on Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GzLMM) with binomial error distribution. F  =  F-ratio for fixed effects and corresponding degrees of freedom (subscripts in parenthesis). χ2 for pseudo-likelihood ratio test “covtest” for random effects (d.f. = 1)

Comparison of the incidence of sibling cannibalism between male-killing Spiroplasma infected and uninfected clutches of a predatory ladybird beetle, Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2006
The incidence of sibling cannibalism in clutches of Harmonia axyridis infected by the male-killing Spiroplasma was compared with that in uninfected clutches, and the way in which fitness compensation was realized by sibling cannibalism was investigated ...

Spiroplasmas of Group I: the Spiroplasma citri cluster.

open access: yesThe Yale journal of biology and medicine, 1984
We propose that Group I spiroplasmas be subdivided into seven, rather than four, subgroups. The seven subgroups showed remarkable homogeneity when several representative strains were compared. Hybridization reactions between DNAs of representative strains within subgroups were generally at least 90 percent, and usually at least 80 percent co-migrating ...

Effect of Iron on the Defensive Mutualism of Drosophila Flies and Spiroplasma Bacteria

open access: yes, 2015
Maternally-transmitted associations between endosymbiotic bacteria and insects are pervasive in nature, and vary from commensalism to mutualism to parasitism.
