Phenotypic shift in Wolbachia virulence towards its native host across serial horizontal passages.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 26 Jul 2017

Le Clec'h Winka, Dittmer Jessica, Raimond Maryline, Bouchon Didier, Sicard Mathieu

Abstract excerpt

Vertical transmission mode is predicted to decrease the virulence of symbionts. However, Wolbachia, a widespread vertically transmitted endosymbiont, exhibits both negative and beneficial effects on arthropod fitness. This 'Jekyll and Hyde' behaviour, as well as its ability to live transiently outside host cells and to establish new infections via horizontal transmission, may reflect the capacity of Wolbachia to...
