An ancient mitochondrial polymorphism in Adalis bipunctata linked to a sex-ratio-distorting bacterium.

Genetics - 1 Nov 2005

Jiggins Francis M, Tinsley Matthew C

Abstract excerpt

Sex-ratio-distorting microbes are common parasites of arthropods. Although the reasons they have invaded and spread though populations are well understood, their subsequent dynamics within those populations are virtually unknown. We have found that different strains of a male-killing Rickettsia bacterium infecting the beetle Adalia bipunctata are associated with distinct mitochondrial haplotypes, which is...
