The Virulent <i>Wolbachia</i> Strain wMelPop Efficiently Establishes Somatic Infections in the Malaria Vector <i>Anopheles gambiae</i>

30 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

Wolbachia pipientis bacteria are maternally inherited endosymbionts that are of interest to control the Anopheles mosquito vectors of malaria. Wolbachia does not infect Anopheles mosquitoes in nature, although cultured Anopheles cells can be infected. Here, we show that the virulent Wolbachia strain wMelPop can survive and replicate when injected into female Anopheles gambiae adults, but the somatic infections...
