Strohm E, Herzner G, Ruther J, Kaltenpoth M, Engl T
Elife
. 2019 Jun;
8.
PMID: 31182189
Detrimental microbes caused the evolution of a great diversity of antimicrobial defenses in plants and animals. Insects developing underground seem particularly threatened. Here we show that the eggs of a...

Weiss K, Herzner G, Strohm E
BMC Evol Biol
. 2017 Jun;
17(1):128.
PMID: 28587589
Background: Sexual selection is thought to promote evolutionary changes and diversification. However, the impact of sexual selection in relation to other selective forces is difficult to evaluate. Male digger wasps...

Stokl J, Herzner G
Arthropod Struct Dev
. 2016 Jun;
45(4):333-40.
PMID: 27349419
Chemical communication by the parasitoid wasp Leptopilina heterotoma is based largely on (-)-iridomyrmecin. The female wasps use (-)-iridomyrmecin as a defensive allomone, a chemical cue to avoid competition with con-...

BMC Evol Biol
. 2015 Dec;
15:291.
PMID: 26690740
Background: Hymenoptera that mass-provision their offspring have evolved elaborate antimicrobial strategies to ward off fungal infestation of the highly nutritive larval food. Females of the Afro-European Philanthus triangulum and the...

PLoS One
. 2014 Jun;
9(6):e98784.
PMID: 24886721
Effective antimicrobial strategies are essential adaptations of insects to protect themselves, their offspring, and their foods from microbial pathogens and decomposers. Larvae of the emerald cockroach wasp, Ampulex compressa, sanitize...

Kaltenpoth M, Roeser-Mueller K, Koehler S, Peterson A, Nechitaylo T, Stubblefield J, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2014 Apr;
111(17):6359-64.
PMID: 24733936
Many insects rely on symbiotic microbes for survival, growth, or reproduction. Over evolutionary timescales, the association with intracellular symbionts is stabilized by partner fidelity through strictly vertical symbiont transmission, resulting...

Herzner G, Kaltenpoth M, Poettinger T, Weiss K, Koedam D, Kroiss J, et al.
PLoS One
. 2013 Dec;
8(12):e82780.
PMID: 24324830
Microbes pose severe threats to animals as competitors or pathogens and strongly affect the evolution of life history traits like parental care. Females of the European beewolf Philanthus triangulum, a...

PLoS One
. 2013 Nov;
8(11):e79660.
PMID: 24236152
Biological mimicry is often multimodal, in that a mimic reinforces its resemblance to another organism via different kinds of signals that can be perceived by a specific target audience. In...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2013 Jan;
110(4):1369-74.
PMID: 23297195
Food resources contaminated with spoilage or pathogenic microorganisms pose severe problems to all higher organisms. Here, we describe a food-hygienic strategy of the emerald cockroach wasp Ampulex compressa. The wasp...

Appl Environ Microbiol
. 2011 Nov;
78(3):822-7.
PMID: 22113914
Insects engage in symbiotic associations with a large diversity of beneficial microorganisms. While the majority of well-studied symbioses have a nutritional basis, several cases are known in which bacteria protect...
