Insect cells host many endosymbiotic bacteria, which are in general classified according to their importance for the host: "primary" symbionts are by definition mandatory and synthesize essential nutrients for the insects that feed on poor or unbalanced food sources, while "secondary" symbionts are optional and use mutualistic strategies and/or manipulation of reproduction to invade and persist within insect populations.Hamiltonella defensa is a secondary endosymbiont that established two distinct associations with phloemophagous insects. In aphids, it protects the host against parasitoid attacks. Its ability to infect many host tissues, notably the hemolymph, could promote its contact with parasitoid eggs. Despite this protective phenotype...
