The Molecular Detection, Characterization, and Temperature Dependence of <i>Wolbachia</i> Infections in Field Populations of <i>Aedes albopictus</i> (Diptera: Culicidae) Mosquitoes in Greece

The Molecular Detection, Characterization, and Temperature Dependence of <i>Wolbachia</i> Infections in Field Populations of <i>Aedes albopictus</i> (Diptera: Culicidae) Mosquitoes in Greece

We investigated the prevalence and genetic diversity of <i>Wolbachia pipientis</i> strains in <i>Aedes albopictus</i> populations in Greece. Using a combination of PCR and Sanger sequencing techniques, we genotyped <i>Wolbachia</i> strains in 105 mosquitoes collec...
