This lecture went beyond describing the microbiota of these organisms to consider how bacteria or microbial populations can affect the development and function of a host organ, such as the role of Vibrio fischeri in the genesis and function of the squid's luminous organ, and the conjunction of certain bacteria and a fungal mycetoma in the community behavior of attic garden ants.
