The inner core core oligosaccharide, composed of Kdo (3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid), Ko, and two heptoses, is especially important in maintaining a symbiont titer in the M4 midgut and supporting host growth, fitness, and defense against bacterial challenge |

It can trongly degrade naringenin, and pinitol, the main soluble carbohydrate of P. tabuliformis, is retained in L. procerum-infected phloem and facilitate naringenin biodegradation by the microbiotas. |
