Surprising Symbiosis: Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter Eats With Friends
Like a celebrity living on mineral water, the glassy-wingedsharpshooter consumes only the dilute sap of woody plants 鈥斅� including grapevinesin California,which is feverishly working to prevent the insect's flight into prizedvineyards. Now, in a surprising study published in the June 6 issue of PublicLibrary of Science Biology (PLoS Biology), researchers at The Institute forGenomic Research (TIGR), the University of Arizona, and their colleagueshave discovered that the sharpshooter's deprivation diet is sneakilysupplemented by not one, but two co-dependent bacteria living inside its cells.
