Mechanisms and Evolution of Heritable Microbial Density in Insect Hosts

Within-host density is a critically important aspect of vertically transmitted symbioses that influences the fitness of both hosts and microbes. I review recent studies of symbiont density in insects, including my laboratory’s work on pea aphids and maternally transmitted bacteria.
