Differential gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster and D. nigrosparsa infected with the same Wolbachia strain
Abstract Wolbachia are maternally inherited endosymbionts that infect nearly half of all arthropod species. Wolbachia manipulate their hosts to maximize their transmission, but they can also provide benefits such as nutrients and resistance against viruses to their hosts. The Wolbachia strain wMel w...
