Arsenophonus sp.
Pseudomonadota |
Aphis gossypiiIran |
Bacteria
|
Intracellular
|
Arsenophonus sp. (secondary symbiont reduction) led to reduction of the total life span and intrinsic rate of natural increase as well as appearance of deformed dead offspring in Aphis gossypii. Arsenophonus and H. defensa contribute to the fitness of A. gossypii by enhancing its performance. |
