Insects host microbes and interact with them throughout their life cycle. This microbiota is an important, if not essential, partner participating in many aspects of insect physiology. Recent omics studies have contributed to considerable advances in the current understanding of the molecular implications of microbiota during insect development. In this review, we present an overview of the current knowledge about the mechanisms underlying interactions between developing insects and their microbial companions. The microbiota is implicated in nutrition, both via compensating for metabolic pathways lacking in the host and via regulating host metabolism. Furthermore, the microbiota plays a protective role, enhancing the insect's tolerance to, or resistance against, various environmental stresses.
昆虫宿主微生物，并在其整个生命周期中与它们相互作用。这种微生物群即使不是昆虫生存所必需的，也是参与昆虫生理学诸多方面的重要伙伴。最近的组学研究极大地推动了我们目前对微生物群在昆虫发育过程中的分子影响的理解。在这篇综述中，我们概述了目前关于发育中的昆虫与其微生物伙伴之间相互作用机制的知识。微生物群在营养方面发挥作用，既通过补偿宿主中缺乏的代谢途径，也通过调节宿主代谢来实现。此外，微生物群还起到保护作用，增强昆虫对各种环境压力的耐受性或抵抗力。
