Candidatus Blochmannia Details: NCBI 203804, gram-negative or unknown [genus]
| "Candidatus Blochmannia" Sauer et al. 2000| Blochmannia| Candidatus Blochmannia| Candidatus camponotii| Sphingobacterium camponotii
Nutritional Mutualism:
- "Candidatus Blochmannia" is believed to play a crucial role in the nutrition of ant hosts. These bacteria are involved in the synthesis of essential amino acids that may be limited or absent in the ants' diet. In return, the ant provides a protected and nutrient-rich environment for the bacteria.
Impact on Host Reproduction:
- The mutualistic relationship with "Candidatus Blochmannia" can have significant impacts on the reproductive success of ant colonies. The provision of essential nutrients by the bacteria may contribute to the overall fitness of the ant colony.
Symbiotic Obligations:
- The relationship between "Candidatus Blochmannia" and its ant host is considered obligate, meaning that both partners depend on each other for survival and reproduction. The loss of these endosymbiotic bacteria could have detrimental effects on the ant colony.
Evolutionary Dynamics:
- The co-evolution of ants and their endosymbiotic bacteria, including "Candidatus Blochmannia," is an area of interest in evolutionary biology. The stability and specificity of these symbiotic associations can provide insights into the evolutionary processes that shape mutualistic relationships.

Lab Reporting
Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
Desired Levels Suggestions for Candidatus Blochmannia
