Abstract excerpt
Fluorescence in situ hybridization was tested to specifically detect symbionts of the genus Wolbachia in Trichogramma and to allow for semiquantitative estimations of symbiont abundance. Extraction solutions used for horizontal transfers of symbionts contain a high abundance of Wolbachia, but Wolbachia have a low and decreasing abundance in microinjected lines (transfected lines). Moreover, eggs of microinjected...
