Evolutionary history of a mosquito endosymbiont revealed through mitochondrial hitchhiking.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Jul 2006

Rasgon Jason L, Cornel Anthony J, Scott Thomas W

Abstract excerpt

Due to cytoplasmic inheritance, spread of maternally inherited Wolbachia symbionts can result in reduction of mitochondrial variation in populations. We examined sequence diversity of the mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 4 (ND4) gene in Wolbachia-infected (South Africa (SA), California and Thailand) and uninfected (SA) Culex pipiens complex populations. In total, we identified 12 haplotypes (A-L). In...
