harboring Serratia improved host aphid growth and fecundity but reduced longevity. Serratia defends aphids against P. japonica by impeding the predator's development and predation capacity, and modulating its foraging behavior

process of regression from winged to wingless morph was inhibited by Serratia symbiotica. The existence of the symbiont did not affect the body mass and fecundity of adult aphids, but it increased the body weight of nymphs and temporally increased the quantity of a primary symbiont, Buchnera aphidicola
