Phthorimaea operculellaChina |
Bacteria
|
Extracellular
|
Glutamicibacter halophytocola S2 can degrade the major toxic solanaceae glycoalkaloids α-solanine and α-chaconine in potatoes, which facilitates Phthorimaea operculella host fitness. |

Bombella apis A29
Pseudomonadota |
Apis melliferaUSA |
Bacteria
|
Bombella apis A29 can synthesize all essential amino acids and significantly alters the amino acid content of synthetic larval diet, largely by supplying the essential amino acid lysine to the host Apis mellifera. |

Bifidobacterium asteroides strain wkB2None4
Actinomycetota |
Bacteria
|
Extracellular
|
Bifidobacterium asteroides strain wkB204 grew in the presence of amygdalin as the sole carbon source, suggesting it degrades amygdalin and is not susceptible to its potential byproducts in the Spodoptera frugiperda system. |
