Wolbachia are successful Gram-negative bacterial endosymbionts, globally infecting a large
fraction of arthropod species and filarial nematodes. Efficient vertical transmission, the …

In this review we examine how exploiting the Wolbachia–mosquito relationship has become
an increasingly popular strategy for controlling arbovirus transmission. Field deployments of …

As a result of global change, hosts and parasites (including pathogens) are experiencing
shifts in their thermal environment. Despite the importance of heat stress tolerance for host …

Wolbachia is a maternally transmitted bacterium that lives inside arthropod cells. Historically,
it was viewed primarily as a parasite that manipulates host reproduction, but more recently it …

Wolbachia is a maternally transmitted bacterial symbiont that is estimated to infect
approximately half of arthropod species. In the laboratory it can increase the resistance of …

Heritable symbionts can modify a range of ecologically important host traits, including
behavior. About half of all insect species are infected with maternally transmitted Wolbachia …

Wolbachia is one of the most prevalent bacterial endosymbionts, infecting approximately
40% of terrestrial arthropod species. Wolbachia is often a reproductive parasite but can also …

Wolbachia is one of the most common bacterial endosymbionts, which is frequently found in
numerous arthropods and nematode taxa. Wolbachia infections can have a strong influence …

Rising temperatures are impacting the range and prevalence of mosquito-borne diseases. A
promising biocontrol technology replaces wild mosquitoes with those carrying the virus …

Wolbachia bacteria are common endosymbionts of many arthropods found in gonads and
various somatic tissues. They manipulate host reproduction to enhance their transmission …
