The bacteriophage WORiC is the active phage element in wRi of Drosophila simulans and represents a conserved class of WO phages
BACKGROUND: The alphaproteobacterium Wolbachia pipientis, the most common endosymbiont in eukaryotes, is found predominantly in insects including many Drosophila species. Although Wolbachia is primarily vertically transmitted, analysis of its genome provides evidence for frequent horizontal transfer...
