Symbiotic association between hoopoes and antibiotic- producing bacteria that live in their uropygial gland (2008, background): “…there are reports of highly integrated symbiotic associations (sensu, Herre et al. 1999; Thompson 2005) between animals and antibioticproducing bacteria (Gil-Turnes, Hay & Fenical 1989; Currie et al. 1999; Oliver et al. 2003) that have been reviewed recently elsewhere (Moran 2006; Lombardo 2008).”
Arthropod symbioses: a neglected parameter in pest- and disease-control programmes (2011, background): “Oliver et al. (2003) demonstrated that the development of resistant populations is owing to differences in secondary symbiont infections.”
Heritable genetic variation and potential for adaptive evolution in asexual aphids (Aphidoidea) (2003, background): “Recent work has demonstrated that secondary symbionts of the pea aphid confer resistance to the hymenopteran parasitoid, Aphididus ervi (Haliday) (Oliver et al., 2003).”
Bacterial symbionts as mediators of ecologically important traits of insect hosts (2011, background): “…have been shown to be major players in defence of the insects themselves by enhancing pathogen and parasitoid resistance (Currie et al., 2003a,b; Oliver et al., 2003, 2009, 2010; Kaltenpoth et al., 2005; Hedges et al., 2008; Teixeira et al., 2008; Brownlie & Johnson, 2009; Kaltenpoth, 2009) or…”
Defensive symbiosis in the real world – advancing ecological studies of heritable, protective bacteria in aphids and beyond (2014, background): “Other symbionts, including members of these same lineages (Wolbachia and Spiroplasma), have been found to mediate important ecological interactions, including defence against natural enemies (Oliver et al. 2003; Hedges et al. 2008; Teixeira, Ferreira & Ashburner 2008; Jaenike et al. 2010; Xie, Vilch”
The Bacterial Symbiont Wolbachia Induces Resistance to RNA Viral Infections in Drosophila melanogaster (2008, background): “Other examples are herpesvirus latency-induced protection to Listeria in mice mentioned above [59], the suppression of HIV-1 infection by human herpesvirus 6 in human cells [68], symbiotic bacteria protection against fungi in a shrimp and an aphid [69,70], symbiotic bacteria protection against paras”
The natural occurrence of secondary bacterial symbionts in aphids (2016, background): “Given the wide-ranging effects of aphid secondary symbionts on their host (Chen et al., 2000; Montllor et al., 2002; Oliver et al., 2003; Vorburger & Gouskov, 2011) and potential cascading effects on higher trophic levels (Frago et al.”
Development, specificity and sublethal effects of symbiont‐conferred resistance to parasitoids in aphids (2012, background): “So far, there is no evidence that this bacterium affects 110 susceptibility to parasitoids in A. fabae (Vorburger et al. 2009), which is consistent with a 111 study on this endosymbiont in pea aphids (Oliver et al. 2003).”
Bacterial Communities of Diverse Drosophila Species: Ecological Context of a Host–Microbe Model System (2011, background): “Several lineages are endosymbiotic and required for insect nutrition, defense from parasites, and tolerance of heat stress [38,39,40,41].”
Nine facultative endosymbionts in aphids. A review (2017, background): “One reason for the moderate frequency of infection is that it may represent a cost for aphids (Scarborough et al., 2005; Oliver et al., 2003; 2008).”
