Current knowledge of interactions between Drosophila suzukii and microbes, and their potential utility for pest management (2016, background): “There is increasing support that attraction of insect vectors is a prime function of yeast volatiles.”
Acetic Acid Bacteria (2016, background): “, when the host is grown on a minimal diet) (Shin et al. 2011), or they may positively affect larval development, as does the vertically and horizontally transmitted mosquito symbiont Asaia (Chouaia et al.”
Life‐history trade‐offs under different larval diets in Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) (2015, background): “Removing gut microbes results in an increased sensitivity to dietary protein in D. melanogaster (Shin et al., 2011).”
The gut microbiota of insects - diversity in structure and function. (2013, methodology): “could only rescue the developmental defects in the presence of the PQQ-ADH mutant suggesting that not only bacterial production but also metabolism of acetic acid is required to promote insulin signaling (Shin et al., 2011).”
Seasonal shifts in the insect gut microbiome are concurrent with changes in cold tolerance and immunity (2018, background): “These microbes contribute to digestion of 49 food, provide essential nutrients, protect the host from colonisation by pathogenic microbes, and 50 communicate with the host through neuroendocrine signaling to regulate host physiology 51 (Douglas 2015; Engel & Moran 2013; Shin et al. 2011).”
