Wolbachia-Host Interactions: Host Mating Patterns Affect Wolbachia Density Dynamics
Wolbachia are maternally inherited intracellular bacteria that infect a wide range of arthropods and cause an array of effects on host reproduction, fitness and mating behavior. Although our understanding of the Wolbachia-associated effects on hosts is rapidly expanding, our knowledge of the host f...
