Wolbachia

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Intracellular

Wolbachia has been reported both to extend and shorten longevity; its lifespan-modulating effects are proposed to involve pathways like insulin/insulin-like growth factor, immune deficiency, ecdysteroid synthesis, and heat shock protein synthesis/autophagy.
Lifespan Modulation

2016
Bacteria
Intracellular and Extracellular

The microbiome (amplicon) can influence chemical communication by altering the production of pheromones.
Semiochemical Biosynthesis

2016
Bacteria

Bacillus thuringiensis is a widely used bacterial entomopathogen that produces insecticidal toxins, some of which are expressed in insect-resistant transgenic crops.

Acetobacter

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Extracellular

Acetobacter may be able to ameliorate the pH of the acidic midgut region by releasing weak bases, and also has a complex relationship with physiological processes like nutrition and immune function that affect ionic homeostasis.

Lactobacillus

Bacillota

Morganella morganii

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria

Morganella morganii was previously shown to use phenol as a sex pheromone, which is produced by symbiotic bacteria in the accessory or colleterial gland.

Morganella morganii

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Extracellular

Morganella morganii produces phenol as the host's sex pheromone from tyrosine in the colleterial gland.
