Phylogeny of the arthropod endosymbiont Wolbachia based on the wsp gene.

Insect molecular biology - 1 Aug 1999

Van Meer M M, Witteveldt J, Stouthamer R

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria of the genus Wolbachia (Rickettsiae) are widespread in arthropods and can induce cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI), thelytoky (T) or feminization (F) in their host. Recent research on the wsp gene of mainly CI inducing Wolbachia has shown that this gene evolves at a much faster rate than previously sequenced genes such as 16S or ftsZ. As a result this gene appears to be very useful in subdividing the...
