Parthenogenesis-inducing Wolbachia in Trichogramma kaykai (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) originates from a single infection.

1998-07-01

Abstract excerpt

To determine the degree of within-population diversity of a parthenogenesis-inducing Wolbachia symbiont in the parasitic wasp Trichogramma kaykai Pinto, Platner & Stouthamer, we established >200 isofemale lines of this (partly) parthenogenetic species from the Californian Mojave Desert. These were screened with Wolbachia-specific polymerase chain reaction primers. An infection rate of 12.4% was found. We th...
