Loss of cytoplasmic incompatibility in Wolbachia-infected Aedes aegypti under field conditions.
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019 Wolbachia bacteria are now being introduced into Aedes aegypti mosquito populations for dengue control. When Wolbachia infections are at a high frequency, they influence the local transmission of dengue by direct virus blocking as well as deleterious ...

Wolbachia transinfections in Culex quinquefasciatus generate cytoplasmic incompatibility. [PDF]
Insect Mol Biol, 2020 Abstract Culex quinquefasciatus is an important mosquito vector of a number of viral and protozoan pathogens of humans and animals, and naturally carries the endosymbiont Wolbachia pipientis , strain w Pip.

bioRxiv, 2023 The endosymbiotic bacteria Wolbachia can invade insect populations by modifying host reproduction through cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI), an effect that results in embryonic lethality when Wolbachia -carrying males mate with Wolbachia -free females ...

Wolbachia-induced unidirectional cytoplasmic incompatibility and speciation: mainland-island model. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 Bacteria of the genus Wolbachia are among the most common endosymbionts in the world. In many insect species these bacteria induce a sperm-egg incompatibility between the gametes of infected males and uninfected females, commonly called unidirectional ...

Cytoplasmic incompatibility and host population structure [PDF]
Heredity, 2009 Many arthropod species are infected by maternally inherited bacteria that induce cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI). CI causes embryonic mortality in offspring when infected males mate with either uninfected females or with females that are infected with a different strain of bacteria.

A new model and method for understanding Wolbachia-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Wolbachia are intracellular bacteria transmitted almost exclusively vertically through eggs. In response to this mode of transmission, Wolbachia strategically manipulate their insect hosts' reproduction.

Comparative susceptibility of mosquito populations in North Queensland, Australia to oral infection with dengue virus. [PDF]
, 2014 Dengue is the most prevalent arthropod-borne virus, with at least 40% of the world's population at risk of infection each year. In Australia, dengue is not endemic, but viremic travelers trigger outbreaks involving hundreds of cases.
