<i>Wolbachia</i> endosymbionts manipulate GSC self-renewal and differentiation to reinforce host fertility
2022-12-17
Abstract excerpt
The alphaproteobacterium Wolbachia pipientis infects arthropod and nematode species worldwide, making it a key target for host biological control. Wolbachia -driven host reproductive manipulations, such as cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI), are credited for catapulting these intracellular bacteria to high frequencies in host populations. Positive, perhaps mutualistic, reproductive manipulations also increase infe...
