• The microbiome of pest insects: it is not just bacteria (2019, background): “Yeasts or yeast-like symbionts in the insect digestive tract are involved in metabolic pathways of amino acids and fatty acids and the absence of yeasts can lead to incomplete metamorphosis (Vega & Dowd, 2005; Carvalho et al., 2010).”
• Influence of dietary yeasts on Drosophila melanogaster life‐history traits (2010, background): “Additionally, yeasts may also mediate both diges- tive and detoxifying reactions, as well as pheromone production (Sang, 1978; Starmer et al., 1986; Vega & Dowd, 2004).”
