Spiroplasma

Mycoplasmatota

Anopheles gambiae

Burkina Faso

Bacteria
Intracellular

Spiroplasma may have reproductive interactions with mosquito hosts, either by providing an indirect fitness advantage to females by inducing male killing or by directly protecting the host against natural pathogens.

Wolbachia

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Intracellular

Wolbachia does not affect the development of the host female reproductive tract and eggs, but it enhances the host-searching ability of female wasps.

Buchnera

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Intracellular

Elimination of Buchnera significantly reduced the formation of winged morphs, body mass, and fecundity in S. avenae; it may disrupt nutrient acquisition in aphids and alter transgenerational phenotypic expression.
