Diverse toxin repertoire but limited metabolic capacities inferred from the draft genome assemblies of three <i>Spiroplasma</i> (Citri clade) strains associated with <i>Drosophila</i>
2024-09-25
Abstract excerpt
Spiroplasma (Class Mollicutes) is a diverse wall-less bacterial genus whose members are strictly dependent on eukaryotic hosts (mostly arthropods and plants), with which they engage in pathogenic to mutualistic interactions. Spiroplasma are generally fastidious to culture in vitro , especially those that are vertically transmitted by their hosts, which include flies in the genus Drosophila . Drosophila has bee...
