Registered in the second pass on the exchange of 2026-10-27, "Repository coverage assessment", at the owner's request to find what it mentioned and did not cite (second curation entry of 2026-10-27). No NOTE is filed, and it stays Unfetched until it is read, not on merit. A lawful free copy was located on 2026-10-27: PubMed Central holds it (PMC4547289), and the publisher's version is at pnas.org/doi/pdf/10.1073/pnas.1421386112.

Cited as “reported in” byCASE-177 — Hodgkinia in cicadas: one endosymbiont splitting into two to dozens of interdependent lineages, with near-complementary gene sets, idiosyncratic fragmentation in Magicicada, and hosts transmitting up to six times as many cells to keep every lineage

Not read. The summary is drawn from the abstract. A reading should check it first.

Why this is here

A2 said “other cicadas show extensive genome fragmentation” and named no work. Its search results point to this paper and LIT-1602, the two that report fragmentation in Magicicada. Registered for CASE-177.
