Symbiotic associations with microorganisms represent major sources of ecological and
evolutionary innovations in insects. Multiple insect taxa engage in symbioses with bacteria …

The genus Burkholderia contains large number of diverse species which include many
clinically important organisms, phytopathogens, as well as environmental species. However …

Hemipterans are known as hosts to bacterial or fungal symbionts that supplement their
unbalanced diet with essential nutrients. Among them, scale insects (Coccomorpha) are …

Russula griseocarnosa is a wild, ectomycorrhizal, edible, and medicinal fungus with high
economic value in southern China. R. griseocarnosa fruiting bodies cannot be artificially …

Fungi interact closely with bacteria, both on the surfaces of the hyphae and within their living
tissues (ie endohyphal bacteria, EHB). These EHB can be obligate or facultative symbionts …

Burkholderia terrae BS001 has previously been found to be able to disperse along with
growing fungal hyphae in soil, with the type-3 secretion system having a supportive role in …

Burkholderia terrae strain BS001, obtained as an inhabitant of the mycosphere of Laccaria
proxima (a close relative of Lyophyllum sp. strain Karsten), actively interacts with Lyophyllum …

The natural environment serves as a reservoir of opportunistic pathogens. A well-
established method for studying the epidemiology of such opportunists is multilocus …

In this study, the mycosphere isolate Burkholderia terrae BS001 was confronted with the soil
fungus Lyophyllum sp. strain Karsten on soil extract agar plates in order to examine its …

Bacteriophages constitute key gene transfer agents in many bacteria. Specifically, they may
confer gene mobility to Paraburkholderia spp. that dwells in soil and the mycosphere. In this …
