Arsenophonus
''Arsenophonus'' is a genus of Morganellaceae, of the Gammaproteobacteria. Members of the ''Arsenophonus'' genus are increasingly discovered bacterial symbionts of arthropods that are estimated to infect over 5% of arthropod species globally and form a variety of relationships with hosts across the mutualism parasitism continuum. ''Arsenophonus'' bacteria have been identified in a diversity of insect taxa, including economically important species such as the Western honey bee and the rice pest ''Nilaparvata lugens''. The majority of work on ''Arsenophonus'' has been done on the type species '' Arsenophonus nasoniae'' for which genetic manipulation has been successful in achieving ''in vivo'' tracking of the bacterium. '' Arsenophonus nasoniae'' infects ''Nasonia'' parasitic wasps, is vertically transmitted through eggs, and has a male-killing phenotype. Infection with '' Arsenophonus nasoniae'' triggers the death of approximately 80% of the wasps male offspring. Killing male of ...

Arsenophonus Nasoniae
''Arsenophonus nasoniae'' is a species of bacterium which was previously isolated from ''Nasonia vitripennis'', a species of parasitoid wasp. These wasps are generalists which afflict the larvae of parasitic carrion flies such as blowflies, houseflies and flesh flies. ''A. nasoniae'' belongs to the phylum Pseudomonadota and family Morganellaceae.The genus ''Arsenophonus'', has a close relationship to the Proteus (bacterium) rather than to that of Salmonella and Escherichia. The genus is composed of gammaproteobacterial, secondary-endosymbionts which are gram-negative. Cells are non-flagellated, non-Motility, motile, non-spore forming and form long to highly Filamentous bacteria, filamentous rods. Cellular division is exhibited through Septate, septation. The name Arsenophonus nasoniae'' gen. nov., sp. nov.' was therefore proposed for the discovered bacterium due to its characteristics and its microbial interaction with ''N. vitripennis''. The type strain of ''A. nasoniae'' is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Arsenophonus Arthropodicus
''Candidatus'' Arsenophonus arthropodicus is a Gram-negative and intracellular secondary (S) endosymbiont that belongs to the genus '' Arsenophonus''. This bacterium is found in the Hippoboscid louse fly, ''Pseudolynchia canariensis''. S-endosymbionts are commonly found in distinct tissues. Strains of recovered ''Arsenophonus'' found in arthropods share 99% sequence identification in the 16S rRNA gene across all species. ''Arsenophonus''-host interactions involve parasitism and mutualism, including a popular mechanism of "male-killing" found commonly in a related species, ''Arsenophonus nasoniae''. This species is considered "''Ca.'' A. arthropodicus" due it being as of yet uncultured. Isolation and genome identification Isolation Amplified 16S rRNA gene sequences of ''Phoenix canariensis'' pupal DNA showed ''Arsenophonus'' detection in hemocytes, gut, fat body, and reproductive tissues indicating distribution of bacterium throughout hosts tissues. Lab cultured bacteria found i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Morganellaceae
The Morganellaceae are a family of Gram-negative bacteria that include some important human pathogens formerly classified as Enterobacteriaceae. This family is a member of the order Enterobacterales in the class Gammaproteobacteria of the phylum Pseudomonadota. Genera in this family include the type genus '' Morganella'', along with '' Arsenophonus, Cosenzaea, Moellerella, Photorhabdus, Proteus, Providencia'' and ''Xenorhabdus''. The name ''Morganellaceae'' is derived from the Latin term ''Morganella'', referring the type genus of the family and the suffix "-aceae", an ending used to denote a family. Together, ''Morganellaceae'' refers to a family whose nomenclatural type is the genus ''Morganella''. Human pathogens A number of Morganellaceae bacterial species are opportunistic human pathogens, including ''Proteus'', '' Providencia'', and occasionally '' Morganella'' in nosocomial settings.

Enterobacterales
Enterobacterales is an order of Gram-negative, non-spore forming, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria with the class Gammaproteobacteria. The type genus of this order is ''Enterobacter.'' The name Enterobacterales is derived from the Latin term ''Enterobacter'', referring the type genus of the order and the suffix "-ales", an ending used to denote an order. Together, Enterobacterales refers to an order whose nomenclatural type is the genus ''Enterobacter''. Historical Identification and Systematics Enterobacterales was proposed in 2005 under the name "Enterobacteriales". However, the name "Enterobacteriales" was not validated according to the rules of the ''International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes,'' thus it lacked standing in nomenclature, so the name was written in parentheses. "Enterobacteriales" was a monotypic order, containing only the family '' Enterobacteriaceae'', and shared its type genus ''Escherichia''.NCBEnterobacteralesaccessed 9 Mar 2013 The ...

Lipoptena Cervi
''Lipoptena cervi'', the deer ked or deer fly, is a species of biting fly in the family of louse flies, Hippoboscidae. These flies are commonly encountered in temperate areas of Europe, Siberia, and northern China. They have been introduced to North America. They are parasites of elk, deer, and other deer family members, burrowing through the fur and sucking the blood of the host animals. Adults are only in length and brownish in colour. Their bodies are flat and elastic, making their removal difficult. ''L. cervi'' is a poor flier and can only fly for short distances. Once the insect reaches its target, it sheds its wings and starts burrowing through the fur. Bite Although their life cycle depends on deer, they may on rare occasions bite humans, producing responses ranging from unnoticeable to highly allergic. Initially, the bite may be barely noticeable and leaves little or no trace. Within 3 days, the site may develop into a hard, reddened welt. The accompanying itch ...
