How symbiotic bacteria with minimal genetic information support #insect hosts https://phys.org/news/2025-08-symbiotic-bacteria-minimal-genetic-insect.html paper: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1038/s44319-025-00525-2

"#Symbiotic #bacteria support larvae by producing amino acids... They also support the adult #beetles by producing an enzyme that breaks down plant cell walls... There are two types of symbiotic association within #ReedBeetles. There are beetle species in which #symbionts benefit both life stages. In others only the larvae benefit directly from the symbiont"

When large quantities of brown #algae are repeatedly #washedashore over an extended period, my first question as an acarologist is naturally which interesting, and possibly phoretic, terrestrial #organisms, such as mites, are specifically #adapted to these #conditions. But these algae are a phenomenon with #ecological #repercussions that must be understood. It is particularly interesting, thus, that it is the #phosphorus content that affects #symbiotic #cyanobacteria, which promote algal growth
