Cytoplasmic Incompatibility and Population Structure
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1997Wolbachiais a maternally inherited bacterial infection common in many insects. These bacteria cause cytoplasmic incompatibility, in which a cross between an infected male and an uninfected female is sterile. Infected females are always fertile, suggesting that an infected male produces a sterilizing product against which infected females are protected.

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: 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: 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.

On the dynamics of symbiote-dependent cytoplasmic incompatibility in culicine mosquitoes
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1978Abstract The population dynamics of cytoplasmic incompatibility in culicine mosquitoes is discussed in the context of recent discoveries of the biological basis of this phenomenon. A simple model is derived for predicting prevalence rates of infection with cytoplasmic incompatibility factors over successive generations of a host species.

Eradication of Culex pipiens fatigans through Cytoplasmic Incompatibility
Nature, 1967Culex pipiens fatigans is the chief vector of filariasis in south-east Asia. Urbanization has often caused the numbers of this mosquito—and with it the danger of filariasis infection—to increase alarmingly1. The natural vigour, tolerance and fast development of resistance to insecticides of this mosquito necessitate the development of other control ...

The evolution of cytoplasmic incompatibility or when spite can be successful
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1991It is proposed that the phenomena of cytoplasmic incompatibility is explicable in terms of the selfish interests of the prokaryotic symbionts associated with the phenomena. It is hypothesized that in males the symbionts produce a product, termed wolbachin, which is carried in sperm and has the capability of inhibiting zygotic development if not ...
