Aphid Heritable Symbiont Exploits Defensive Mutualism.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 15 Apr 2017

Doremus Matthew R, Oliver Kerry M

Abstract excerpt

Insects and other animals commonly form symbioses with heritable bacteria, which can exert large influences on host biology and ecology. The pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, is a model for studying effects of infection with heritable facultative symbionts (HFS), and each of its seven common HFS species has been reported to provide resistance to biotic or abiotic stresses. However, one common HFS, called X-type,...
