Two male-killing Wolbachia from Drosophila birauraia that are closely related but distinct in genome structure

1 Jan 2024

Abstract excerpt

Insects harbour diverse maternally inherited bacteria and viruses, some of which have evolved to kill the male progeny of their hosts (male killing: MK). The fly species Drosophila biauraria carries a maternally transmitted MK-inducing partiti-like virus, but it was unknown if it carries other MK-inducing endosymbionts. Here, we identified two male-killing Wolbachia strains ( w Biau1 and w Biau2) from D....
