Conjugal DNA transfer in the maternally inherited symbiont of tsetse flies <i>Sodalis glossinidius</i>

2020-06-18

Abstract excerpt

Stable associations between insects and bacterial species are widespread in nature. This is the case for many economically important insects, such as tsetse flies. Tsetse flies are the vectors of Trypanosoma brucei , the etiological agent of African trypanosomiasis—a zoonotic disease that incurs a high socioeconomic cost in endemic regions. Populations of tsetse flies are often infected with the bacterium Sodali...
