<i>Wolbachia</i> genomics reveals a potential for a nutrition-based symbiosis in blood-sucking Triatomine bugs

2022-09-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> The nutritional symbiosis promoted by bacteria is a key determinant for adaptation and evolution of many insect lineages. A complex form of nutritional mutualism that arose in blood-sucking insects critically depends on diverse bacterial symbionts that supplement the diet of their nutrient-poor hosts with B vitamins. For instance, the triatomine bug Rhodnius prolixus , one of the main vectors of...
