Is <i>Anopheles gambiae</i> a natural host of <i>Wolbachia</i> ?

2018-12-13

Abstract excerpt

Wolbachia ( Alphaproteobacteria, Rickettsiales ) is an intraovarially-transmitted symbiont of insects able to exert striking phenotypes, including reproductive manipulations and pathogen blocking. These phenotypes make Wolbachia a promising tool to combat mosquito-borne diseases. Although Wolbachia is present in the majority of terrestrial arthropods, including many disease vectors, it was considered absent fro...
