Cellular Tropism, Population Dynamics, Host Range and Taxonomic Status of an Aphid Secondary Symbiont, SMLS (Sitobion miscanthi L Type Symbiont)
SMLS (Sitobion miscanthi L type symbiont) is a newly reported aphid secondary symbiont. Phylogenetic evidence from molecular markers indicates that SMLS belongs to the Rickettsiaceae and has a sibling relationship with Orientia tsutsugamushi. A comparative analysis of coxA nucleotide sequences further supports recognition of SMLS as a new genus in the Rickettsiaceae. In situ hybridization revea...
متن کاملSymbiont infection affects aphid defensive behaviours.
Aphids harbour both an obligate bacterial symbiont, Buchnera aphidicola, and a wide range of facultative ones. Facultative symbionts can modify morphological, developmental and physiological host traits that favour their spread within aphid populations. We experimentally investigated the idea that symbionts may also modify aphid behavioural traits to enhance their transmission. Aphids exhibit m...
متن کاملTwo species of symbiotic bacteria present in the soybean aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae).
Aphids, which feed solely on plant phloem sap, have developed symbiotic associations with bacteria that provide them with the amino acids that are lacking in phloem. Three soybean aphid (Aphis glycines Mat samura) populations were screened for the presence of Buchnera aphidicola and three common species of secondary aphid symbionts (Serratia symbiotica, Hamiltonella defensa, and Regiella insect...

متن کاملOld and new symbiotic partners in lachnine aphids.
The relationship between aphids and their bacterial symbiont, Buchnera aphidicola, is a central model for maternally transmitted symbiosis characterized by long-term evolutionary co-diversification of partners and by genome reduction of the bacterial symbiont. In one clade of aphids, the subfamily Lachninae, genome reduction of Buchnera is extreme and aphid hosts often have adopted additional m...
