Environmental effects on cytoplasmic incompatibility and bacterial load in <i>Wolbachia</i> ‐infected <i>Drosophila simulans</i>
1998-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The effects of high temperatures, antibiotics, nutrition and larval density on cytoplasmic incompatibility caused by a Wolbachia infection were investigated in Drosophila simulans . Exposure of larvae from an infected stock to moderate doses of tetracycline led to complete incompatibility when treated females were crossed to infected males; the same doses only caused a partial restoration of compatibility...
