Bacteria
Intracellular

Blattabacterium cuenoti serves as the obligate endosymbiont and primary nutritional provider, contributing to amino acid provision and affecting uric acid storage in Blattella germanica.
Amino Acid Provision

2024
Bacteria
Extracellular

The gut bacteria are not essential for Blattella germanica's survival and development but may complement host nutrition by assisting with food digestion and nutrient absorption.
Nutrient Provision Growth Regulation

Gilliamella apicola

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Extracellular

Gilliamella apicola carries the gene for the desaturase FADS2, which is able to metabolize polyunsaturated fatty acids from pollen and synthesize endocannabinoid, a lipogenic neuroactive substance, thereby modulating reward learning and memory in honeybees.

Bombella apis

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Extracellular

Bombella apis has the ability to restore the larval-to-pupal transition that is disrupted by antibiotic treatment in the host, Apis cerana.
Developmental Modulation

Nardonella

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Intracellular

Candidatus Nardonella is an endosymbiont that participates in tyrosine production for its host, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus, potentially involving the import of host-encoded aminotransferase.

Burkholderia

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria

Burkholderia is an ingested soil bacterium that primes the host's systemic immunity, preventing subsequent infection by lethal pathogens in Riptortus pedestris.
Immune Priming

2024
Bacteria
Intracellular

Candidatus Arsenophonus nilaparvatae infection results in an acquired insecticide sensitivity trait in transinfected planthopper lines, associated with the downregulation of the host's P450 xenobiotic detoxification system.

Bacteria
Extracellular

Bacillus thuringiensis isolates demonstrate high susceptibility of the pest Tuta absoluta upon individual exposure, suggesting its potential as a microbial pesticide for pest management.

Stammera

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Intracellular

Candidatus Stammera produces and supplies pectinases to the alimentary tract of its leaf beetle host, Notosacantha, facilitating plant cell wall digestion.

Wolbachia strain wAlbB sharply decreases dengue incidence in disease hotspots, with dengue reduction predicted to reach 75.8\% at 100\% Wolbachia frequency.
Antiviral Activity

2024
Bacteria

Enterococcus casseliflavus increases the resistance of Bactrocera dorsalis to \beta-cypermethrin by regulating cytochrome P450 (P450) and α-glutathione S-transferase (GST) activities via the CncC pathway.
