DOI: 10.1007/s10750-019-04175-z
Abstract: Blood-feeding leeches of the genus Placobdella have acquired intracellular alphaproteobacterial endosymbionts of the genus Reichenowia that potentially aid in the production of B vitamins, thereby ameliorating the lack of these essential nutrients in the diet… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ee/nvx031
Abstract: Abstract Insects often have facultative associations with bacterial endosymbionts, which can alter the insects' susceptibility to parasitism, pathogens, plant defenses, and certain classes of insecticides. We collected pear psylla, Cacopsylla pyricola (Förster) (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), from… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/agronomy13051373
Abstract: With the increasing negative impacts of food production worldwide caused by pests, the recovery of native entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) is relevant, since they are adapted to local environments, entomofauna, and significant virulence. Therefore, the present… read more here.
