Abstract:BackgroundAn effective strategy for arboviral control consists in transfectingAedes aegyptimosquitoes with the intracellular bacteriaWolbachia pipientis, which reduces host viral susceptibility and spreads itself into wild populations via reproductive manipulations. However, the prospect of losing the efficacy of this strategy underscores the need for deepening the mechanistic knowledge ofDiptera-Wolbachiasystems and identifying relevantWolbachiaeffects that could decline upon adaptation ofA. aegyptitransfecti… Show more
