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

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

Introduced transinfections of the inherited bacteria Wolbachia can inhibit transmission of
viruses by Aedes mosquitoes, and in Ae. aegypti are now being deployed for dengue control …

How and when the microbiome modulates host adaptation remains an evolutionary puzzle,
despite evidence that the extended genetic repertoire of the microbiome can shape host …

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

Wolbachia are the most common obligate, intracellular bacteria in animals. They exist
worldwide in arthropod and nematode hosts in which they commonly act as reproductive …

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 …

Mosquito-transmitted diseases impose a growing burden on human health, and current
control strategies have proven insufficient to stem the tide. The bacterium Wolbachia is a …

Symbiosis between intracellular bacteria (endosymbionts) and animals are widespread. The
alphaproteobacterium Wolbachia pipientis is known to maintain a variety of symbiotic …

Bacterial endosymbionts induce dramatic phenotypes in their arthropod hosts, including
cytoplasmic incompatibility, feminization, parthenogenesis, male killing, parasitoid defense …
