Fungus growing ants pseudonocardia


Pseudonocardia is the type genus of the bacteria family Pseudonocardiaceae. Members of this genus have been found living mutualistically on the cuticle of the leafcutter ants because the bacteria has antibiotic properties that protect the fungus grown by the ants. The bacteria may also be found in crypts on the propleural plate.
