Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2023 Heritable microbes that exhibit reproductive parasitism are common in insects. One class of these are the male-killing bacteria, which are found in a broad range of insect hosts. Commonly, our knowledge of the incidence of these microbes is based on one or a few sampling sites, and the degree and causes of spatial variation are unclear.

An optimized approach to germ-free rearing in the jewel wasp Nasonia [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Development of a Nasonia in vitrogerm-free rearing system in 2012 enabled investigation of Nasonia-microbiota interactions and real-time visualization of parasitoid metamorphosis. However, the use of antibiotics, bleach, and fetal bovine serum introduced

Allele-Specific Transcriptome and Methylome Analysis Reveals Stable Inheritance and Cis-Regulation of DNA Methylation in Nasonia. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2016 Gene expression divergence between closely related species could be attributed to both cis- and trans- DNA sequence changes during evolution, but it is unclear how the evolutionary dynamics of epigenetic marks are regulated.

Finer-Scale Phylosymbiosis: Insights from Insect Viromes
mSystems, 2018 Phylosymbiosis was recently proposed to describe the eco-evolutionary pattern whereby the ecological relatedness (e.g., beta diversity relationships) of host-associated microbial communities parallels the phylogeny of the host species.

Mapping of Hybrid Incompatibility Loci in Nasonia [PDF]
Genetics, 1999 AbstractAccording to theory, F2 hybrid breakdown (lethality or sterility) is due to incompatibilities between interacting genes of the different species (i.e., the breaking up of coadapted gene complexes). Detection of such incompatibilities is particularly straightforward in haplodiploid species, because virgin F1 hybrid females will produce haploid ...

Insect Innate Immunity Database (IIID): an annotation tool for identifying immune genes in insect genomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The innate immune system is an ancient component of host defense. Since innate immunity pathways are well conserved throughout many eukaryotes, immune genes in model animals can be used to putatively identify homologous genes in newly sequenced genomes ...
