Pantoea sp. Pseudomonadota	Brachynema germari Iran	Bacteria	Intracellular	Pantoea sp. in Brachynema germari leads to external morphological changes (e.g., abnormalities in notum and wings), significantly fewer emergence rates, and less mating frequency in the aposymbiotic population.	Developmental Modulation	2021
Pantoea sp. Pseudomonadota	Brachynema germari Kolenati Iran	Bacteria	Extracellular	Pantoea sp. improves the fitness of Brachynema germari, as symbiont-free insects exhibit retarded growth, lower longevity, and reduced adult body weight.	Growth Regulation	2019
