Formation of Stylet Sheaths in aere (in air) from Eight Species of Phytophagous Hemipterans from Six Families (Suborders: Auchenorrhyncha and Sternorrhyncha)
Stylet sheath formation is a common feature among phytophagous hemipterans. These sheaths are considered essential to promote a successful feeding event. Stylet sheath compositions are largely unkn...
Gene disruption by homologous recombination in the Xylella fastidiosa citrus variegated chlorosis strain
Mutagenesis by homologous recombination was evaluated in Xylella fastidiosa by using the bga gene, coding for R-galactosidase, as a model. Integration of replicative plasmids by homologous recombin...
Identification and analysis of seven effector protein families with different adaptive and evolutionary histories in plant-associated members of the Xanthomonadaceae
The Xanthomonadaceae family consists of species of non-pathogenic and pathogenic gamma-proteobacteria that infect different hosts, including humans and plants. In this study, we performed a compara...
Metabolic complementarity and genomics of the dual bacterial symbiosis of sharpshooters
Mutualistic intracellular symbiosis between bacteria and insects is a widespread phenomenon that has contributed to the global success of insects. The symbionts, by provisioning nutrients lacking f...
