The wMel Wolbachia strain blocks dengue and invades caged Aedes aegypti populations [PDF]

, 2011
Dengue fever is the most important mosquito-borne viral disease of humans with more than 50 million cases estimated annually in more than 100 countries. Disturbingly, the geographic range of dengue is currently expanding and the severity of outbreaks is ...

Wolbachia in the Culex pipiens group mosquitoes: introgression and superinfection. [PDF]

, 2009
Wolbachia bacteria in mosquitoes induce cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI), where sperm from Wolbachia-infected males can produce inviable progeny. The wPip strain in the Culex pipiens group of mosquitoes produces a complexity of CI crossing types. Several

A re-examination of Wolbachia-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility in California Drosophila simulans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
In California Drosophila simulans, the maternally inherited Riverside strain Wolbachia infection (wRi) provides a paradigm for rapid spread of Wolbachia in nature and rapid evolutionary change.

A Wolbachia deubiquitylating enzyme induces cytoplasmic incompatibility [PDF]

Nature Microbiology, 2017
Wolbachia are obligate intracellular bacteria1 that infect arthropods, including approximately two-thirds of insect species2. Wolbachia manipulate insect reproduction by enhancing their inheritance through the female germline. The most common alteration is cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI)3-5, where eggs from uninfected females fail to develop when ...

Differentially expressed profiles in the larval testes of Wolbachia infected and uninfected Drosophila. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Wolbachia are endosymbiotic bacteria that are frequently found in arthropods and nematodes. These maternally inherited bacteria manipulate host reproduction by several mechanisms including cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI).

Horizontal gene transfer between Wolbachia and the mosquito Aedes aegypti. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: The evolutionary importance of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) from Wolbachia endosymbiotic bacteria to their eukaryotic hosts is a topic of considerable interest and debate.

Temperature affects the tripartite interactions between bacteriophage WO, Wolbachia, and cytoplasmic incompatibility. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Wolbachia infections are a model for understanding intracellular, bacterial symbioses. While the symbiosis is often studied from a binary perspective of host and bacteria, it is increasingly apparent that additional trophic levels can influence the ...

Cytoplasmic Mixing, Not Nuclear Coexistence, Can Explain Somatic Incompatibility in Basidiomycetes

Microorganisms, 2021
Nonself recognition leading to somatic incompatibility (SI) is commonly used by mycologists to distinguish fungal individuals. Despite this, the process remains poorly understood in basidiomycetes as all current models of SI are based on genetic and ...

Blood meal induced microRNA regulates development and immune associated genes in the Dengue mosquito vector, Aedes aegypti [PDF]

, 2013
Aedes aegypti is a blood-feeding mosquito that transmits human pathogens such as Dengue virus, Yellow Fever virus and Chikungunya virus. Recently, dramatic changes in the transcriptome of Ae.
