Partial elimination of <i>Wolbachia</i> in the Asian citrus psyllid, <i>Diaphorina citri</i> , increases phytopathogen acquisition and decreases fitness

Abstract excerpt
Wolbachia is a maternally inherited intracellular bacterium that infects a wide range of arthropods. Wolbachia can have a significant impact on host biology and development, often due to its effects on reproduction. We investigated Wolbachia infection in the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri , which transmits Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus ( C Las), the causal agent of citrus greening disease. D. cit...
