Evidence for host control from experimental studies is shown across a range of animal, plant, and single-celled species. (A) The diatom Asterionellopsis glacialis releases uncommon metabolites that enhance the attachment and growth of beneficial symbionts while suppressing opportunistic pathogens .
Jan 11, 2019 · Mechanisms and functions underlying host-microbiota interactions. What functions are delivered by the microbiota to the host and what are the resulting phenotypic and fitness effects are certainly among some of the most burning questions in the field of holobiont research.

Oct 12, 2020 · Host odor perception is composed of three main elements: plants (host), air (carrier medium), and insects (guest). Plants release different blends of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which herbivore insects perceive as cues for feeding and egg deposition as well as to avoid undesired host.

Jul 4, 2022 · We review sensory cues involved at different stages of interaction with host plants and outline a unified scheme of insect–host interaction mechanisms. Generalist species may be best understood as specialized organisms with a longer tail of secondary host species that they accept to a lessening extent.
