    An aphid-borne bacterium allied to the secondary symbionts of whitefly (2001)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    FEMS microbiology ecology 36 (2001), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1574-6941
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Bacterial 16S rDNA amplified by PCR from the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum included a sequence with 〉98% similarity to secondary symbionts in the whitefly Bemisia tabaci. The ‘pea aphid Bemisia-like bacterium’ (PABS) and B. tabaci secondary symbionts are estimated to have diverged 17–34 million years ago, a time considerably more recent than the common ancestor of aphids and whitefly and suggestive of horizontal transmission of this bacterial lineage. PABS was scored in both the gut and ovaries of aphids by PCR and identified as a small rod by in situ hybridisation. PABS was not universal in pea aphids: 2/3 laboratory strains and 13/35 of field aphids were PABS-positive. It is suggested that the incidence of PABS in pea aphids is determined by the balance between loss (processes may include occasional failure of vertical transmission and selection against PABS-positive aphids) and horizontal transfer between insects.

    Animals in a bacterial world, a new imperative for the life sciences (2013)
    National Academy of Sciences
    In:  PNAS Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 110 (9). pp. 3229-3236.

    Description: In the last two decades, the widespread application of genetic and genomic approaches has revealed a bacterial world astonishing in its ubiquity and diversity. This review examines how a growing knowledge of the vast range of animal-bacterial interactions, whether in shared ecosystems or intimate symbioses, is fundamentally altering our understanding of animal biology. Specifically, we highlight recent technological and intellectual advances that have changed our thinking about five questions: how have bacteria facilitated the origin and evolution of animals; how do animals and bacteria affect each other's genomes; how does normal animal development depend on bacterial partners; how is homeostasis maintained between animals and their symbionts; and how can ecological approaches deepen our understanding of the multiple levels of animal-bacterial interaction. As answers to these fundamental questions emerge, all biologists will be challenged to broaden their appreciation of these interactions and to include investigations of the relationships between and among bacteria and their animal partners as we seek a better understanding of the natural world.
