Recent changes in phenotype and patterns of host specialization in Wolbachia bacteria.

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2002

Jiggins Francis M, Bentley Joanna K, Majerus Michael E N, Hurst Gregory D D

Abstract excerpt

Wolbachia are a genus of bacterial symbionts that are known to manipulate the reproduction of their arthropod hosts, both by distorting the host sex ratio and by inducing cytoplasmic incompatibility. Previous work has suggested that some Wolbachia clades specialize in particular host taxa, but others are diverse. Furthermore, the frequency with which related strains change in phenotype is unknown. We have...
