Cytoplasmic Incompatibility: Giant steps sideways
Current Biology, 1994The horizontal transfer of a bacterial endosymbiont that is intimately associated with reproductive isolation in insects is now feasible and may, in principle, lead to new strategies for biological pest control.

Cytoplasmic incompatibility in insects
1997Abstract Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) was first described in mosquitoes by Ghelelovitch (1952) and studied in detail by Laven in the 1950s (reviewed in Laven 1967b). Laven observed that crosses between different strains of mosquitoes sometimes failed to produce progeny, or produced progeny only when crossed in one direction (i.e ...

Dynamics of Cytoplasmic Incompatability with MultipleWolbachiaInfections
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1998Wolbachia infections occur in many arthropods. These matrilineally inherited bacteria cause cytoplasmic incompatibility, in which a cross produces no offspring when between an infected male and an uninfected female. Some populations harbour multiple Wolbachia strains.

The etiological agent of cytoplasmic incompatibility in Culex pipiens
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1973Abstract All individuals of Culex pipiens (wide sense) which have been examined were infected with Wolbachia pipientis . Larvae reared in tetracycline were freed of these symbiotes and remained free (aposymbiotic) in future generations. When males were freed of their symbiotes, they no longer displayed incompatibility.

Cytoplasmic incompatibility in insects: Why sterilize females?
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1991Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) in insects is an intrapopulational sterility phenomenon. Although known for nearly 40 years, it has only recently attracted the attention of evolutionary biologists, having been found in an increasing number of species. Apparently, the proximate cause of CI is the presence of rickettsia-like endocellular microorganisms.

Multispecies Interactions Affect Cytoplasmic Incompatibility in Tribolium Flour Beetles
The American Naturalist, 1992Previous studies established that cytoplasmic incompatibility in the confused flour beetle, Tribolium confusum, is mediated by a maternally inherited rickettsia-like bacteria: crosses between infected males and uninfected females are sterile. All other crosses are fertile, and individuals can be cured of infection by treatment with tetracycline.
