The Biochemistry of Cytoplasmic Incompatibility Caused by Endosymbiotic BacteriaH. Chen, M. Zhang and M. Hochstrasser, Genes, 11. 2020.![]() ![]() ![]() Many species of arthropods carry maternally inherited bacterial endosymbionts that can influence host sexual reproduction to benefit the bacterium. The most well-known of such reproductive parasites is Wolbachia pipientis. Wolbachia are obligate intracellular ... Keywords: antidote, cytoplasmic incompatibility, toxin, wolbachia |
