	Host Insect	Classification	Localization	Function	Function Tags	Year	Edit
Cardinium Bacteroidota	Sogatella furcifera China, Thailand, M…	Bacteria	Intracellular	Candidatus Cardinium infection significantly decreases the diversity of the host's microbial community.	Other	2024
Candidatus Cardinium Bacteroidota	Bemisia tabaci China	Bacteria		Candidatus Cardinium reduces the competitiveness of the host Bemisia tabaci by decreasing its detoxification metabolism ability, specifically the expression of uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronyltransferase and P450 genes. However, Cardinium also suppresses the host plant's defense response, a function which may benefit the whiteflies.	Plant Defense Modulation	2023
Cardinium Bacteroidota	Sogatella furcifera China	Bacteria	Intracellular	Candidatus Cardinium reduces microbiome diversity and modifies host metabolism and fecundity in the planthopper Sogatella furcifera.	Fertility	2022
Cardinium Bacteroidota	Bemisia tabaci China	Bacteria	Intracellular	Candidatus Cardinium increases the thermal tolerance of the whitefly Bemisia tabaci.	Temparature Adaptation	2021
Cardinium Bacteroidota	Lutzomyia evansi Colombia	Bacteria	Intracellular	Candidatus Cardinium is involved in diverse reproduction alterations of its arthropod hosts, including cytoplasmic incompatibility, parthenogenesis, and feminization.	Cytoplasmic Incompatibility Male Killing Parthenogenesis	2019
Cardinium cSfur Bacteroidota	Sogatella furcifera	Bacteria	Intracellular			2018
Cardinium Bacteroidota	Bemisia tabaci Croatia, Montenegr…	Bacteria	Extracellular	Cardinium acts as a reproductive manipulator.	Reproductive Manipulation	2017
Candidatus Cardinium hertigii Bacteroidota	Encarsia pergandiella USA	Bacteria		Candidatus Cardinium hertigii causes cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI).	Cytoplasmic Incompatibility	2012
Caridinium Bacteroidota	Sogatella furcifera Japan, China, Vietn…	Bacteria	Intracellular	Candidium (in Sogatella furcifera), in dual infection with Wolbachia, induces strong cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI).	Cytoplasmic Incompatibility	2012
Candidatus Cardinium Bacteroidota	Sogatella furcifera China	Bacteria	Intracellular	Candidatus Cardinium can shorten the developmental time of nymphs and has no effect on female fecundity.	Growth Regulation Developmental Modulation	2012
Candidatus Cardinium hertigii Bacteroidota	Scaphoideus titanus Italy	Bacteria	Intracellular			2006
Candidatus Cardinium hertigii Bacteroidota	Scaphoideus titanus Italy	Bacteria	Intracellular			2006
