<i>Wolbachia</i> endosymbionts in two <i>Anopheles</i> species indicates independent acquisitions and lack of prophage elements

2021-11-15

Abstract excerpt

Wolbachia is a genus of obligate bacterial endosymbionts that infect a diverse range of arthropod species as well as filarial nematodes, with its single described species, Wolbachia pipientis, divided into several ‘supergroups’ based on multilocus sequence typing. Wolbachia strains in mosquitoes have been shown to inhibit the transmission of human pathogens including Plasmodium malaria parasites and arboviruses...
