Winter fruit contribution to the performance of the invasive fruit fly <i>Drosophila suzukii</i> under different thermal regimes Open
Polyphagous insect species develop using multiple host plants. Often considered beneficial, polyphagy can also be costly as host nutritional quality may vary. Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) is an invasive species that can develop on numero…

Wolbachia improves the performance of an invasive fly after a diet shift Open
Polyphagy is an adaptative strategy allowing species to develop and survive on multiple diets. Phytophagous insects can be exposed to sub-optimal resources, as host plants vary in nutritional quality. Some insects may rely on symbiotic bac…

Physiological costs of facultative endosymbionts in aphids assessed from energy metabolism Open
Many insect species harbour heritable bacterial endosymbionts. Some facultative endosymbionts provide benefits to their hosts under certain environmental conditions. Facultative endosymbionts are expected to impose additional energetic exp…

Physiological costs of facultative endosymbionts in aphids assessed from energy metabolism Open
Using the standard metabolic rate (SMR) as a measure of the energy cost of self-maintenance, we investigated whether two common facultative endosymbionts Hamiltonella defensa or Regiella insecticola increase the maintenance cost of the pea…

A perspective on insect–microbe holobionts facing thermal fluctuations in a climate‐change context Open
Summary Temperature influences the ecology and evolution of insects and their symbionts by impacting each partner independently and their interactions, considering the holobiont as a primary unit of selection. There are sound data about th…

Developmental Temperature Affects Life-History Traits and Heat Tolerance in the Aphid Parasitoid Aphidius colemani Open
Developmental temperature plays important roles in the expression of insect traits through thermal developmental plasticity. We exposed the aphid parasitoid Aphidius colemani to different temperature regimes (10, 20, or 28 °C) throughout l…

The aphid facultative symbiont Serratia symbiotica influences the foraging behaviors and the life-history traits of the parasitoid Aphidius ervi Open
Aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) maintain intimate relationships with a variety of symbiotic bacteria that can be important drivers of their evolutionary ecology. In addition to the obligate endosymbiont Buchnera aphidicola, aphids may harbor…

At the Gate of Mutualism: Identification of Genomic Traits Predisposing to Insect-Bacterial Symbiosis in Pathogenic Strains of the Aphid Symbiont Serratia symbiotica Open
Mutualistic associations between insects and heritable bacterial symbionts are ubiquitous in nature. The aphid symbiont Serratia symbiotica is a valuable candidate for studying the evolution of bacterial symbiosis in insects because it inc…

Dual RNAseq analyses at soma and germline levels reveal evolutionary innovations in the elephantiasis-agent Brugia malayi, and adaptation of its Wolbachia endosymbionts Open
Brugia malayi is a human filarial nematode responsible for elephantiasis, a debilitating condition that is part of a broader spectrum of diseases called filariasis, including lymphatic filariasis and river blindness. Almost all filarial ne…

Facultative symbionts associated with aphid populations in citrus orchards in northern Tunisia Open
Like many insects, aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) can host a wide diversity of symbiotic bacteria that can be important drivers of their evolutionary ecology. In addition to the nutritional obligate symbiont Buchnera aphidicola, these phloe…

A large-scale field study of bacterial communities in cereal aphid populations across Morocco Open
Insects are frequently associated with bacteria that can have significant ecological and evolutionary impacts on their hosts. To date, few studies have examined the influence of environmental factors to microbiome composition of aphids. Th…

<i>Wolbachia</i> control stem cell behavior and stimulate germline proliferation in filarial nematodes Open
SUMMARY Although symbiotic interactions are ubiquitous in the living world, examples of developmental symbioses are still scarce. We show here the crucial role of Wolbachia in the oogenesis of filarial nematodes, a class of parasites of bi…

Impacts of differences in nutritional quality of wingless and winged aphids on parasitoid fitness Open
Winged aphids are described as hosts of lesser quality for parasitoids because a part of their resources is used to produce wings and associated muscles during their development. Host lipid content is particularly important for parasitoid …
