Staphylococcus xylosus Bacillota	Melanaphis bambusae No function data Anticarsia gemmatalis Staphylococcus xylosus acts against plant-derived protease inhibitors, potentially aiding in pest control. Anticarsia gemmatalis Staphylococcus xylosus mitigates the negative effects of proteinase inhibitors produced by the host plant. Anticarsia gemmatalis Staphylococcus xylosus processes serine- and cysteine-proteinase activities (protein degradation). Anticarsia gemmatalis Staphylococcus xylosus allows the insect to adapt to plants rich in protease inhibitors, minimizing their harmful conse…	Bacteria	Detoxification Enzymes Plant Defense Modulation Protein Degradation	5
