High levels of multiple Wolbachia infection and recombination in the ant Formica exsecta.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 May 2003

Reuter Max, Keller Laurent

Abstract excerpt

Wolbachia bacteria are intracellular symbionts of many arthropod species. Their spread through host populations is promoted by drastic alterations imposed on their hosts' reproductive physiology. In the present study, we analyzed the association between Wolbachia strains and host mitochondrial ha...
