Abstract

Data on hereditary symbionts of insects, i.e., on symbiotic bacteria that live in the cytoplasm of host cells and are transmitted between generations transovarially (through the egg), are summarized. Cases of obligate symbiosis, in which bacteria supply the host with the substances that the insect does not receive from food (amino acids, vitamins), and cases of reproductive parasitism, in which the bacterium manipulates host reproduction, ensuring primary transmission of the symbiont between generations, are considered. The integration of host and symbiont genomes, the functional combination of which creates the combined genome, or symbiogenome, is discussed.
