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

Wolbachia are the most abundant bacterial endosymbionts among arthropods. Although
maternally inherited, they do not conform to the widespread view that vertical transmission …

Wolbachia is an endosymbiotic Alphaproteobacteria that can suppress insect-borne
diseases through decreasing host virus transmission (population replacement) or through …

In the last decade, bacterial symbionts have been shown to play an important role in
protecting hosts against pathogens. Wolbachia, a widespread symbiont in arthropods, can …

Wolbachia are endosymbionts found in many insects with the potential to suppress
vectorborne diseases, particularly through interfering with pathogen transmission …

Wolbachia is one of the most abundant endosymbionts on earth, with a wide distribution
especially in arthropods. Effective maternal transmission and the induction of various …

Biological control is widely successful at controlling pests, but effective biocontrol agents are
now more difficult to import from countries of origin due to more restrictive international trade …

This article reviews research on the evolutionary mechanisms leading to different
transmission modes. Such modes are often under genetic control of the host or the …

Drosophila suzukii recently invaded North America and Europe. Populations in Hawaii,
California, New York and Nova Scotia are polymorphic for Wolbachia, typically with< 20 …

Wolbachia pipientis is the most common bacterial infection in the animal world and wields a
vast influence on invertebrate reproduction, sex determination, speciation, and behavior …
