Wolbachia Infection and Cytoplasmic Incompatibility in Drosophila Species [PDF]
Genetics, 1996 Abstract Forty-one stocks from 30 Drosophila species were surveyed for Wolbachia infection using PCR technology. D. sechellia and two strains of D. auraria were found to be infected and were tested for the expression of cytoplasmic incompatibility, along with D. ananassae and D.

The coevolution of toxin and antitoxin genes drives the dynamics of bacterial addiction complexes and intragenomic conflict [PDF]
, 2012 Bacterial genomes commonly contain ‘addiction’ gene complexes that code for both a toxin and a corresponding antitoxin. As long as both genes are expressed, cells carrying the complex can remain healthy.

Induced Paternal Effects Mimic Cytoplasmic Incompatibility in Drosophila [PDF]
Genetics, 2006 Abstract Wolbachia is an intracellular microbe found in a wide diversity of arthropod and filarial nematode hosts. In arthropods these common bacteria are reproductive parasites that manipulate central elements of their host's reproduction to increase their own maternal transmission in one of several ways. Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI)

Current advances in genomics and breeding of leaf chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) [PDF]
, 2016 This review gives an overview of agricultural topics on a non-model species, in other words, leaf chicory. Often classified as a minor crop, \u201cRadicchio\u201d, the Italian name of leaf chicory, is assuming a very important role at both a local and ...

From parasite to mutualist: rapid evolution of Wolbachia in natural populations of Drosophila. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2007 Wolbachia are maternally inherited bacteria that commonly spread through host populations by causing cytoplasmic incompatibility, often expressed as reduced egg hatch when uninfected females mate with infected males.

Experimental hybridization and reproductive isolation between two sympatric species of tephritid fruit flies in the Anastrepha fraterculus species group [PDF]
, 2017 Among tephritid fruit flies, hybridzation has been found to produce local adaptationand speciation, and in the case of pest species, induce behavioral and ecological alterations that can adversely impact efficient pest management. The fraterculus species

Vegetative incompatibility and potential involvement of a mycovirus in the Italian population of Geosmithia morbida [PDF]
, 2015 Studies carried out during an Italian outbreak of the Thousand Cankers Disease of walnut, demonstrated that non-coalescing cankers on host plants, separated by equidistant uninfected zones, were associated with incompatible strains of Geosmithia morbida.

Vegetative Incompatibility and Cytoplasmic Infection in Fungi [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1972 SUMMARY: The effect of vegetative (heterokaryon) incompatibility on the transfer of a suppressive cytoplasmically determined condition, vegetative death, from carrier to normal strains of Aspergillus amstelodami has been investigated. Cytoplasmic transfer was reduced to 15% by vegetative incompatibility compared with 100% transfer in compatible ...
