.. And no evidence of relaxed selection on protein-coding genes shared between Buchnera and Serratia, suggesting that the presence of Serratia does not exacerbate genome erosion in Buchnera even on redundant metabolic genes! ...
.. To our surprise, both bacterial lineages show similar substitution rates, contrasting what we have observed in, for example, Leafhopper's symbiotic systems (Nasuia and Sulcia). Genome variations within and between aphid species indicate strong purifying selection acting on both symbionts..
.. Thus, we show that these symbionts have coevolved under comparable selective constraints and demographic events at least within this clade of Cinara species, that originated ~25 Million years ago
#Aphids typically rely on the obligate #symbiont #Buchnera, but several lineages have acquired additional co-obligate symbionts, most commonly #Serratia symbiotica. Through phylogenetic analyses, we found that a clade of Cinara aphids shows strict cospeciation between aphids and both endosymbionts..

With Eugene Koonin, we wrote a rather comprehensive review on the origin, evolution and organization of the #virosphere. We describe all 10 viral realms and the logic behind them, and so much more. Check it out! comptes-rendus.academie-sciences.fr/biologies/ar...
