Funding

We would like to acknowledge Alexander Siegl and Thomas Penz for their help in collecting adelgids and Irene Lichtscheidl-Schultz (Core Facility Cell Imaging and Ultrastructure Research, Cell Imaging Lab, University of Vienna) for the close-up photos of adelgids. Genome sequencing was performed by the Next Generation Sequencing Facility at Vienna BioCenter Core Facilities (VBCF), member of the Vienna BioCenter (VBC), Austria. This study was funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) project P22533-B17. Work in the laboratory of MH is supported by Austrian Science Fund project DOC 69-B. AM-M was supported by a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship (840270, LEECHSYMBIO) of the European Union.
