Thermal biology in insect-parasite interactions (2003, background): “Moreover, interactions between symbionts are possible whereby one species can reduce the effects of environmental temperature on another [ 35 ].”
The natural occurrence of secondary bacterial symbionts in aphids (2016, background): “parasitism rate, temperature, and host-plant species/abundance) (Montllor et al., 2002; Tsuchida et al., 2002; Leonardo & Muiru, 2003; Brady & White, 2013; Russell et al., 2013).”
The mid‐season crash in aphid populations: why and how does it occur? (2004, background): “, 2003), and tolerance of elevated temperature (Montllor et al., 2002).”
Nine facultative endosymbionts in aphids. A review (2017, background): “For instance the frequency of S. symbiotica in A. pisum in California can increase in two-third with increasing seasonal temperature (Montllor et al., 2002) Additionally, S. symbiotica plays important role in resistance to parasitoid wasps in inducing the mortality of developing parasitoid larvae…”
The microbiome of pest insects: it is not just bacteria (2019, background): “These benefits have been observed in aphids (Montllor et al., 2002; Oliver et al., 2014; Frago et al., 2017), where Buchnera endosymbionts recurrently carry a mutation that governs thermal tolerance of their pea aphid hosts, affecting their fitness positively under lower temperatures (Dunbar et…”
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].”
Facultative ‘secondary’ bacterial symbionts and the nutrition of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (2006, background): “, 2004), thermal tolerance (Montllor et al., 2002; Russell & Moran, 2006) and resistance to parasitoids and fungal pathogens (Oliver et al.”
Rickettsia influences thermotolerance in the whitefly Bemisia tabaci B biotype (2011, background): “Evidence for improved heat tolerance has been previously documented for A. pisum infected with S. symbiotica, which increased host fecundity under constant rearing at 25◦C (Chen et al., 2000) and under heat shock conditions (Montllor et al., 2002).”
Bacterial symbionts as mediators of ecologically important traits of insect hosts (2011, background): “The secondary endosymbionts Serratia symbiotica and Hamiltonella defensa can ameliorate aphid fitness under heat stress (Montllor et al., 2002; Russell & Moran, 2006; Harmon et al., 2009) presumably by enhancing retention of bacteriocytes and survival of Buchnera under heat stress.”
