Superparasitism Drives Heritable Symbiont Epidemiology and Host Sex Ratio in a Wasp
Heritable microbial symbionts have profound impacts upon the biology of their arthropod hosts. Whilst our current understanding of the dynamics of these symbionts is typically cast within a framework of vertical transmission only, horizontal transmission has been observed in a number of cases. For i...
