Bacteria
Extracellular

Burkholderia (in Riptortus pedestris) infected insects showed up-regulation and down-regulation of specific genes that may be involved in the regulation of symbiotic relationships.

Bacteria

Burkholderia symbiont RPE75 purL mutant resulted in significantly smaller host body size, likely due to a lower infection density in the host midgut.

Burkholderia symbiont RPE75 purM mutant resulted in significantly smaller host body size, likely due to a lower infection density in the host midgut.

Burkholderia

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Intracellular and Extracellular

Burkholderia (in Riptortus pedestris) induces specific antimicrobial activity in region MB4 of the midgut, suggesting symbiont-mediated induction of the activity.

Burkholderia spp.

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Extracellular

Burkholderia spp. are beneficial to the host; antibiotic treatments of nymphs resulted in retarded development and high mortality of Blissus insularis.
