<i>Wolbachia</i> in scale insects: a distinct pattern of infection frequencies and potential transfer routes via ant associates
2021-08-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Wolbachia is one of the most successful endosymbiotic bacteria of arthropods. Known as the “master of manipulation”, Wolbachia can induce a wide range of phenotypes in its host that can have far-reaching ecological and evolutionary consequences and may be exploited for disease and pest control. However, our knowledge of Wolbachia’ s distribution and infection rate is unevenly distributed across...
