A host parasite interaction rescues Drosophila oogenesis defects.

Nature - 4 Jul 2002

Starr Diana J, Cline Thomas W

Abstract excerpt

The cytoplasmically inherited bacterium Wolbachia pipientis is a widespread parasite of arthropods that manipulates the reproductive biology of its hosts, often to their detriment, in order to foster its own transmission through egg cytoplasm. Here we report that infection by Wolbachia restores f...
