Pseudomonas

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria

Pseudomonas increased S. nigrita herbivory in bittercress; adult S. nigrita feeding was promoted by a P. fluorescens group strain, while larval feeding was promoted by a P. syringae group strain.

Candidatus Walczuchella monophlebidarum may provide metabolic precursors to the flavobacterial endosymbiont.
Nutrient Provision

2014
Bacteria

Candidatus Walczuchella monophlebidarum could be supplying most precursors for amino acid biosynthesis, as it has the potential to make ribulose-5P from ribose-1P and also PEP and pyruvate from glycolysis. It is also capable of producing homocysteine from homoserine for methionine biosynthesis.
