Metagenomic profiling of bacterial endosymbionts in wild mutant and permethrin-susceptible head lice shows an expanded microbiota in the resistant strain

2026-07-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Human head lice ( Pediculus humanus capitis de Geer) are known to harbor diverse maternally inherited bacterial symbionts. These endosymbiotic bacteria may contribute to insecticide degradation, potentially helping lice withstand particular environmental pressures. Using next-generation sequencing (NGS), this study investigated the bacterial symbionts present in wild head-l...
