Spiroplasma

Mycoplasmatota
Bacteria
Intracellular

Infection with endosymbiotic Spiroplasma disrupts Glossina fuscipes fuscipes metabolic and reproductive homeostasis by competing for finite nutrients, which negatively impacts female fecundity by increasing the length of intrauterine larval development.

Bacteria
Intracellular

Hamiltonella defensa has a weak effect on the ability of Acyrthosiphon pisum to defend themselves against parasitic wasps Aphidius ervi during the attack and a strong effect on aphid resistance against parasitoid development.

Burkholderia

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Extracellular

The initial colonization by Burkholderia programs the ontogeny of the midgut in Blissus insularis, providing a sheltered residence protected from microbial antagonists.
