ABSTRACT
A number of insects are associated with gut symbiotic microorganisms, wherein symbiotic partners play pivotal metabolic roles for each other such as nutrient supplementation, diet degradation, and pesticide detoxification. Despite the ecological and evolutionary importance of gut microbial communities in insects, their diversity and dynamics remain unclear in many species. The green plant bug Apolygus spinolae, a notorious grapevine pest in Japan, damages grape shoots and severely reduces grape berry yield and quality. The plant bug possesses a simple tubular gut housing ~ 104 bacteria. Here, we investigated geographic, seasonal, and growth-related dynamics of gut microbiota by high-throughput sequencing in 82 individuals (11 nymphs and 71 adults) from five locations in Hokkaido, Japan. In plant bugs, gut microbiota changed dynamically depending on region, season, and developmental stage. Among the gut bacteria, Serratia was consistently and abundantly detected and was significantly affected by seasonal changes. In addition, Caballeronia, known as a specific symbiont in some stinkbug species, was abundantly detected, especially in insects collected in late summer despite A. spinolae complete lack of midgut crypts known as symbiotic organ harboring Caballeronia in other stinkbug species. Considering their prevalence among host bug populations, it is possible these gut microorganisms play a pivotal role in the adaptation of the green plant bug to grapevine fields, although further confirmation through rearing experiments is needed.
