supplement biotin and riboflavin to enhance reproduction in planthoppers

enhance nanos expression via the bacterial TomO protein in order to fuel germ stem cell maintenance in infected Drosophila females

increased progeny and female progeny size of Aphelinus glycinis

R. insecticola increased the time of pre-adult duration.R. insecticola may reduce the potential growth of S. avenae clones.

Buchnera supplies essential nutrients to its hosts for normal development and is the obligate symbiont in nearly all aphid species

This intracellular symbiont plays important roles in manipulating invertebrate reproductive biology by killing males, feminization, parthenogenesis or cytoplasmic incompatibility, and it has been extensively studied as a biological control agent for arthropods

it seems that the symbiotic bacterium of G. lineatum might have vital role in provision of essential nutrients necessary to support host survival, development and fecundity.

The bacterial cells may thus be able to ameliorate the pH of the acidic region, by the release of weak bases.Additionally, the bacteria have a complex relationship with physiological processes which may affect ionic homeostasis in the gut, such as nutrition and immune function

elimination of Buchnera using the antibiotic rifampicin significantly reduced the formation of winged morphs, body mass, and fecundity in S. avenae; may disrupt the nutrient acquisition in aphids and alter transgenerational phenotypic expression

Spiroplasma protect their host against parasitoid attack. The Spiroplasma-conferred protection is partial and flies surviving a wasp attack have reduced adult longevity and fecundity

Burkholderia sp. did not affect the development of the host insect but the first oviposition time was in approximately 60% compared with a control group

Wolbachia directly favored weevil fertility and exhibited only mild indirect effects, usually enhancing the SZPE effect

bacteria contribute essential amino acids and metabolize urea into an available nitrogen source for the fly, thus significantly elevating egg production

Hamiltonella-infected whiteflies produced significantly more eggs, exhibited significantly higher nymphal survival, faster development times, and larger adult body size in comparison with Hamiltonella-free whiteflies, while no evidence of reproductive manipulation by Hamiltonella were found in B. tabaci MED

influences programmed cell death processes (a host regulatory feature typically targeted by pathogens) in A. tabida, making its presence essential for the wasps' oocytes to mature
