Effects of a sex-ratio distorting endosymbiont on mtDNA variation in a global insect pest.

BMC evolutionary biology - 3 Mar 2009

Delgado Ana M, Cook James M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Patterns of mtDNA variation within a species reflect long-term population structure, but may also be influenced by maternally inherited endosymbionts, such as Wolbachia. These bacteria often alter host reproductive biology and can drive particular mtDNA haplotypes through populations. We investigated the impacts of Wolbachia infection and geography on mtDNA variation in the diamondback moth, a major...
