Abstract
The obligate symbiont
Buchnera
can synthesize amino acids for aphids. In this study, we found that a facultative symbiont,
Arsenophonus
, can help improve aphids’ growth performance under amino acid deficiency stress by changing the relative abundance of
Buchnera
and the expression levels of amino acid synthase genes. This study highlights the interaction between
Arsenophonus
and
Buchnera
to ameliorate aphid growth under amino acid stress.
