Phylogenomics reveals that <i>Asaia</i> symbionts from insects underwent convergent genome reduction, preserving an insecticide-degrading gene

2020-10-31

Abstract excerpt

The mosquito microbiota is composed by several lineages of microorganisms whose ecological roles and evolutionary histories have yet to be investigated in depth. Among these microorganisms, Asaia bacteria play a prominent role, given its abundance in the gut, reproductive organs and salivary glands of different mosquito species, while its presence has also been reported in several other insects. Notably, Asaia h...
