Abstract

The long-term coevolution between insects and their obligate endosymbionts is accompanied by increasing levels of genome integration, sometimes to the point that metabolic pathways require enzymes encoded in two genomes, which we refer to as “collaborative pathways”. To date, collaborative pathways have only been reported from sap-feeding insects.
