Mechanisms Promoting the Long-Term Persistence of a Wolbachia Infection in a Laboratory-Adapted Population of Drosophila melanogaster

Intracellular bacteria of the genus Wolbachia are widespread endosymbionts across diverse insect taxa. Despite this prevalence, our understanding of how Wolbachia persists within populations is not well understood. Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) appears to be an important phenotype maintaining Wol...
