物种是生物学中比较的基本单位。新发现的宿主相关微生物的重要性和普遍性正在刺激人们对微生物在动物物种形成中所发挥的作用的研究。我们之前综合了共生物种形成的文献和先进概念，特别关注杂交不育性和致死性。在这里，我们回顾了微生物作为宿主行为和行为隔离的参与者的最新研究和相关数据，强调了这些分析中看到的模式，并强调了值得进一步探索的领域。我们得出的结论是，微生物共生体在行为和物种形成中的作用正在获得令人兴奋的关注，全生物和全基因组概念提供了一个不断发展的知识框架，以促进行为、微生物学、遗传学、共生和物种形成等学科之间的研究和知识交流。鉴于微生物学在宏观生命中日益重要的地位，微生物共生可以说是动植物物种形成中最被忽视的方面，研究它应该可以更好地了解物种的起源。
Species are fundamental units of comparison in biology. The newly discovered importance and ubiquity of host-associated microorganisms are now stimulating work on the roles that microbes can play in animal speciation. We previously synthesized the literature and advanced concepts of speciation by symbiosis with notable attention to hybrid sterility and lethality. Here, we review recent studies and relevant data on microbes as players in host behavior and behavioral isolation, emphasizing the patterns seen in these analyses and highlighting areas worthy of additional exploration. We conclude that the role of microbial symbionts in behavior and speciation is gaining exciting traction and that the holobiont and hologenome concepts afford an evolving intellectual framework to promote research and intellectual exchange between disciplines such as behavior, microbiology, genetics, symbiosis, and speciation. Given the increasing centrality of microbiology in macroscopic life, microbial symbiosis is arguably the most neglected aspect of animal and plant speciation, and studying it should yield a better understanding of the origin of species.
