- We examined gene expression under heat shock of an insect and its bacterial symbiont in a single assay using a dual-genome microarray. (biomedcentral.com)
Microbial3

(biorxiv.org)
- We characterized the assemblage of hymenopterans attracted to logs of ponderosa pine ( Pinus ponderosa C. Lawson (Pinaceae)) colonized by the bark beetle Ips pini (Say) and its microbial symbionts. (bioone.org)
Eukaryotic2

- In our laboratory, we specialize in developing innovative methods to unravel the complexities of host-symbiont interactions in eukaryotic microbes, employing cutting-edge single-cell transcriptomics. (lu.se)
Intracellular symbiont1
- This is particularly crucial as both the host and intracellular symbiont molecules need to be fixed and permeabilized simultaneously. (lu.se)
Fungal2
- Boreal trees rely on their ectomycorrhizal fungal symbionts to acquire growth-limiting nutrients, such as nitrogen, which mainly occurs as proteins complexed in soil organic matter (SOM). (lu.se)
- Lately, the research has been largely oriented on what functions that plants need to engage in order to be efficiently promoted by growth- and protection-promoting fungal symbionts. (lu.se)
Coral6
- Correa discusses the fact that a little more 'sexy time' for algae symbionts could help coral reefs survive the trials of climate change, which in turn, could help us all. (kpcw.org)
- The research showed that endogenous viral elements , or EVEs, appear widely in the genomes of coral symbionts. (technologynetworks.com)
- That an RNA virus appears at all in coral symbionts was also a surprise. (technologynetworks.com)
- But EVEs were pervasive in coral symbionts that were collected from dozens of coral reef sites, meaning the pathogenic viruses were - and probably remain - picky about their target hosts. (technologynetworks.com)
- The discovery that the EVEs have been conserved for millions of years suggests they may somehow be beneficial to the coral symbionts and that there is some kind of mechanism that drives the genomic integration of the EVEs. (technologynetworks.com)
- Observational evidence suggests that the shift in the relative abundance of resident symbiont populations within the coral host (symbiont shuffling) enables corals to transcend their thermal tolerance limits because some symbionts are more thermally tolerant than others. (leibniz-zmt.de)
Symbiotic4
- Using a model mutualism-the interaction between legumes and nitrogen-fixing soil symbionts-we tested for quantitative genetic variation in plant responses to mutualistic and exploitative symbiotic rhizobia in controlled greenhouse conditions. (datadryad.org)
- Such associations are common in insects, in which the best studied symbiotic system is that of aphids (Insecta: Hemiptera: Aphididae) and their primary symbiont Buchnera aphidicola [ 2 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
- We also show that rapid symbiont shuffling can occur (1) with the presence of a positive feedback, according to which some of the symbiotic benefits received by corals are re-allocated to symbiont growth, thus yielding even higher benefits, or (2) by keeping a background population size of non-dominant symbionts, which enables them to become abundant once conditions become favourable. (leibniz-zmt.de)
- Model systems where the symbiotic partners can be cultured and manipulated separately, e.g., the symbiosis between squids and their bioluminescent symbionts, Vibrio fischeri , are highly valuable when examining function, specificity, and host-microbe interactions during initiation or persistence of the symbiosis ( Ruby, 2008 ).

Parasites1

(starjammersrd.com)
Genomes2
- The Verminephrobacter genomes carry signs of bottleneck-induced genetic drift, such as accelerated evolutionary rates, low codon usage bias, and extensive genome shuffling, which are characteristic of vertically transmitted intracellular symbionts. (frontiersin.org)
- However, the Verminephrobacter genomes lack AT bias, size reduction, and pseudogenization, which are also common genomic hallmarks of vertically transmitted, intracellular symbionts. (frontiersin.org)

- The success of scleractinian corals in oligotrophic waters of the tropics is the result of an endosymbiotic association with unicellular photoautotrophs called zooxanthellae (the symbiont). (leibniz-zmt.de)
- Increasing sea temperature causes the breakdown of this association, the expulsion of the symbionts and, in severe cases, the death of corals. (leibniz-zmt.de)

- We simulated a range of arrival time scenarios for both AMF and PCN and determined their consequences on potato host plants and subsequent symbionts to reflect the likely complexity of symbioses that occur in the field. (whiterose.ac.uk)
- Our data indicate that the order in which symbionts are introduced to crop roots is not only important for their own success, but also for that of the host and its additional symbionts. (whiterose.ac.uk)
- Two contrasting coevolutionary patterns occur throughout the tree: parallel host-symbiont evolution and the haphazard association of the symbionts with distant hosts. (arizona.edu)
- Very little is known of gene expression in aphids, few studies have examined gene expression in Buchnera , and no study has examined simultaneously the expression profiles of a host and its symbiont. (biomedcentral.com)

- Additionally, the symbiont allows its host to pinpoint weak and vital spots in a creature, granting the host the benefits of the Deadly Aim feat. (starjammersrd.com)
- The symbionts have a beneficial effect on host reproduction and likely live on their host's waste products. (frontiersin.org)
- We propose that the opportunity for genetic mixing during part of the host-symbiont life cycle is the key to evade drift-induced genome erosion. (frontiersin.org)
