Bacteria

Mammaliicoccus sciuri produces the secreted chitinolytic lysozyme Msp1, which damages fungal cell walls and completely inhibits the spore germination of the fungal entomopathogens Metarhizium robertsii and Beauveria bassiana.

2024

Fungi

Beauveria bassiana exhibits insecticidal activity against the adult females and progeny of the host, Xyleborus affinis.

2023

Bacteria
Extracellular

Gut bacteria (e.g., Lactobacillus) in Lymantria dispar asiatica increase larval mortality when the host is challenged with Beauveria\ bassiana infection, suggesting a negative interaction with host defense.

2023

Pseudomonas sp

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria

Pseudomonas sp. (a core gut bacteria) can promote host infection by the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana in Plagiodera versicolora.

2023

Fungi

Beauveria bassiana (an entomopathogenic fungus) evolved a defensin-like protein (BbAMP1) to suppress the insect cuticular microbiomes and facilitate fungal infection of Drosophila melanogaster.

2023

Pseudomonas

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria
Extracellular

Pseudomonas shows strong inhibitory activity against the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana by reducing fungal conidial germination and growth in Monochamus alternatus.

2022

Serratia

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria
Extracellular

Serratia shows strong inhibitory activity against the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana by reducing fungal conidial germination and growth in Monochamus alternatus.

2022

Pantoea sp.

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria

Pantoea sp. reduces the pathogenicity of Beauveria bassiana to the host Grapholita molesta.

2022

Fungi

Beauveria bassiana upregulates the expression of SiCSPs and SiOBPs (Chemosensory and Odorant Binding Proteins) in response to fungal infection in Solenopsis invicta.

2021

Bacteria

Bacterial communities (Amplicon data) block Beauveria bassiana conidia and stabilize the associated microbiota of Delia antiqua larvae during B. bassiana invasion, conferring pathogen resistance.

2021

Citrobacter freundii

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria
Extracellular

Citrobacter freundii (one of six symbiotic bacteria) protects Delia antiqua larvae from Beauveria bassiana infection through the production of organic acids.

2020

Citrobacter freundii

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria
Extracellular

Citrobacter freundii (one of six symbiotic bacteria) protects Delia antiqua larvae from Beauveria bassiana infection through the production of organic acids.

2020

Bacteria
Extracellular

Enterobacter ludwigii (one of six symbiotic bacteria) protects Delia antiqua larvae from Beauveria bassiana infection through the production of organic acids.

2020

Bacteria
Extracellular

Pseudomonas protegens (one of six symbiotic bacteria) protects Delia antiqua larvae from Beauveria bassiana infection through the production of organic acids.

2020

Serratia plymuthica

Pseudomonadota

Bacteria
Extracellular

Serratia plymuthica (one of six symbiotic bacteria) protects Delia antiqua larvae from Beauveria bassiana infection through the production of organic acids.

2020

Bacteria
Extracellular

Sphingobacterium faecium (one of six symbiotic bacteria) protects Delia antiqua larvae from Beauveria bassiana infection through the production of organic acids.

2020

Bacteria
Extracellular

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (one of six symbiotic bacteria) protects Delia antiqua larvae from Beauveria bassiana infection through the production of organic acids.

2020
