Extracellular symbiont colonizes insect during embryo development

M. A. G. Porras, I. Pons, M. Garcia-Lozano, S. Jagdale, C. Emmerich, B. Weiss, H. Salem

This study identifies an extracellular symbiont, Stammera, that colonizes insect embryos before hatching, challenging the notion that extracellular microbes are only acquired post-hatching.

Lipid metabolism dysfunction following symbiont elimination is linked to altered Kennedy pathway homeostasis

G. M. Attardo, J. Benoit, V. Michalkova, A. Kondragunta, A. Baumann, B. Weiss, A. Malacrida, F. Scolari, S. Aksoy

This study shows that eliminating symbiotic bacteria in tsetse flies disrupts lipid metabolism via the Kennedy pathway, leading to reproductive failure.

Paratransgenic manipulation of tsetse miR275 alters the physiological homeostasis of the flys midgut environment

L. Yang, B. Weiss, A. E. Williams, E. Aksoy, A. de Silva Orfano, J. H. Son, Y. Wu, A. Vigneron, M. Karakus, S. Aksoy

This study uses paratransgenesis to knock down miR275 in tsetse flies, showing it disrupts midgut physiology and trypanosome infection.

Honey bee suppresses the parasitic mite Vitellogenin by antimicrobial peptide

Y. Wu, Q. Liu, B. Weiss, M. Kaltenpoth, T. Kadowaki

This study investigates the interaction between honey bees, the mite T. mercedesae, and DWV, showing that honey bee antimicrobial peptides suppress mite reproduction.
