Transfection of Culicoides sonorensis biting midge cell lines with Wolbachia pipientis
Abstract Background Biting midges of the genus Culicoides vector multiple veterinary pathogens and are difficult to control. Endosymbionts particularly Wolbachia pipientis may offer an alternative to control populations of Culicoides and/or impact disease transmission in the form of population suppr...
