Fig. 2

Isolation, identification, and location of Sphingomonas. A The colony characteristics of Sphingomonas on 2xYT agar plates. B Phylogenetic relationships of the symbiotic Sphingomonas strain. The red star indicates the Sphingomonas strain isolated from the gut of the IMI-R strain. C The colony characteristics of Sphingomonas on mineral media. D, E The gut organization of A. gossypii and localization of Sphingomonas in the gut of the IMI-R strain. Red signals indicate Sphingomonas symbionts, whereas blue signals show host insect nuclei
