Transcriptional regulation of Culex pipiens mosquitoes by Wolbachia influences cytoplasmic incompatibility [PDF]

, 2013
Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) induced by the endosymbiont Wolbachia pipientis causes complex patterns of crossing sterility between populations of the Culex pipiens group of mosquitoes. The molecular basis of the phenotype is yet to be defined.

Wolbachia stimulates immune gene expression and inhibits Plasmodium development in Anopheles gambia [PDF]

, 2010
The over-replicating wMelPop strain of the endosymbiont Wolbachia pipientis has recently been shown to be capable of inducing immune upregulation and inhibition of pathogen transmission in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes.

High Incidence of Related Wolbachia across Unrelated Leaf-Mining Diptera

Insects, 2021
The maternally inherited endosymbiont, Wolbachia pipientis, plays an important role in the ecology and evolution of many of its hosts by affecting host reproduction and fitness.

Wolbachia-mediated antibacterial protection and immune gene regulation in Drosophila. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The outcome of microbial infection of insects is dependent not only on interactions between the host and pathogen, but also on the interactions between microbes that co-infect the host.

Wolbachia in mosquitoes from the Central Valley of California, USA

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Wolbachia bacteria are widely distributed throughout terrestrial arthropod species. These bacteria can manipulate reproduction and influence the vector competence of their hosts.

Pseudoscorpion Wolbachia symbionts: diversity and evidence for a new supergroup S

BMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Wolbachia are the most widely spread endosymbiotic bacteria, present in a wide variety of insects and two families of nematodes. As of now, however, relatively little genomic data has been available. The Wolbachia symbiont can be parasitic, as
