Unidirectional and Heterogenous Wolbachia Transfer Rates Among Insect Host Orders

2023-03-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Wolbachia are highly prevalent endosymbiotic bacteria infecting more than two-thirds of arthropods. While Wolbachia are mainly transmitted vertically through the female germline, experiments and phylogenetic studies have suggested that horizontal transmission between hosts is not uncommon. In this study, we aim to get a better understanding of horizontal transfer events between hosts of diffe...
