Ecological Interactions Drive Metabolomic Diversification in Amazonian <i>Pseudonocardia</i> Symbionts
2026-01-08
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Fungus-growing ants engage in a multipartite symbiosis, including Pseudonocardia bacteria that produce antifungal metabolites to protect their fungal cultivar from the specialized pathogen Escovopsis . While different bioactive metabolites have been reported from ant-associated Pseudonocardia , most studies have focused on a limited number of strains, leaving the extent of chemical diversity...
