Fungi
Extracellular

Hanseniaspora uvarum (Fungi) emits odours that increased the attraction of flies and led to decreased oviposition.
Semiochemical Biosynthesis Fertility

Fungi
Extracellular

Pichia kluyveri (Fungi) produces odours that strongly deterred flies and resulted in significantly faster larval development and a greater number of adult flies.
Probiotic Growth Regulation

2017
Bacteria

Candidatus Mesenet longicola induced complete Cytoplasmic Incompatibility (CI) (100% mortality).
Cytoplasmic Incompatibility

2017
Bacteria
Intracellular

Wigglesworthia glossinidia synthesizes a large number of B vitamins to supplement the host's nutritional deficiencies.
B Vitamin Supplementation

Wolbachia

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Intracellular

Wolbachia induces costs to life-history and reproductive traits (decreased larval survival and adult longevity, and prolonged developmental period) and exhibits cytoplasmic incompatibility between uninfected females and infected males.

Spiroplasma

Mycoplasmatota
Bacteria

Spiroplasma (when parasitized by the nematode Howardula aoronymphium) encodes a ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) that is related to Shiga-like toxins from Escherichia coli, and causes Howardula ribosomal RNA (rRNA) to be depurinated during symbiont-mediated protection of D. neotestacea.
