Bacteria
Extracellular

Laboratory-reared and field-collected P. chrysocephala all contained three core genera Pantoea, Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas, and reintroduction of Pantoea sp. Pc8 in antibiotic-fed beetles restored isothiocyanate degradation ability in vivo (by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and LC-MS)

2022

Erwinia dacicola

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria
Extracellular

Larvae developed in unripe olive harbored more E. dacicola (by 16S rRNA gene sequencing)

2022

Lymantria dispar

Lepidoptera

Bacteria
Extracellular

Abundance of genus Pseudomonas in D. superans larvae increased, but Serratia and Enterobacter decreased, and L. dispar larvae fed on aconitine-treated diet and nicotine-treated diet shared dominant bacteria Enterococcus (by 16S rRNA gene sequencing)
