Diversity of the Obligate Gut Bacteria Indicates Host–Symbiont Coevolution at the Population Level in the Plataspid Stinkbug Megacopta cribraria
ABSTRACT Ishikawaella is an obligate gut bacterium in stinkbugs that belong to Plataspidae family (Hemiptera: Heteroptera). It is vertically transmitted to newborn nymphs through capsules laid on eggs by maternal stinkbugs. Previous research has established a pattern of strict cospeciation between P...
