“…A complete set of paternal markers would then have been detected in whole egg-rafts because different chromosomes were present in different aneuploid embryos. It can be noted that class 1 embryos in D. simulans were found to be aneuploid, and that Tram et al (2003) suggested that it was a general phenomenon in incompatible crosses. Our analysis cannot exclude this possibility.…”

“…A hypothesis to explain the variable loss of paternal chromosomes is based on the intensity of sperm modification by Wolbachia (see Tram et al, 2003). Since Wolbachia are present in testes but are absent from mature sperm, it has been proposed that Wolbachia induce CI by modifying sperm (Bressac and Rousset, 1993).…”

“…In CI embryos (ie embryos from an incompatible cross), the paternal chromosomes are improperly condensed, and do not accurately segregate during the first zygotic mitosis, while the maternal chromosomes condense and segregate normally. This results in embryos with a complete set of maternal chromosomes, but a reduction or absence of paternal chromosomes (reviewed in Tram et al, 2003). CI embryos from mosquitoes, flies and wasps exhibit the same defects, suggesting a conservative mechanism induced by Wolbachia (Tram et al, 2003).…”

“…These types of CI caused higher embryonic death and organism produced less number of progenies (Breeuwer & Werren, 1990;O'Neill & Karr, 1990;Bourtzis & O'Neill, 1998;Breeuwer & Werren, 2007;Bourtzis & Miller, 2014). Recently Tram et al (2003) reported the occurrence of Wolbachia in male sperm and found that it introduces a factor here that prevents embryogenesis in the fertilized egg, unless the female partner is infected with the same Wolbachia strain to allow the sperm's 'rescue'.…”

KEYWORDS Wolbachia Endosymbiotic bacteriaIntegrated pest management (IPM) Coleoptera ABSTRACTThe endo-symbiotic relationship between microorganism and eukaryotes are very common and has been broadly investigated from all insect species. The genus Wolbachia are obligatory intracellular bacteria that induce evolutionary alterations and have been frequently reported in egg cytoplasm's of various invertebrates including insects, spiders, mites, scorpions, crustaceans and nematodes, which exert a profound impact on host biology and behavior through a number of phenotypic alternations. Due to its ubiquitous phenotypic behavior, Wolbachia becomes a novel and promising natural micro-biocontrol agent to induce cytoplasmic incompatibility, killing of male embryos, parthenogenesis, and feminization. Autonomous transgenic capability, survival on several host species and the ability to modify the host reproductive systems makes it the most prominent and focusing scientific genomic research from last few decades. The aim of this review is to summarize the significance and recent discoveries of Wolbachia related to various arthropods which lead positive directions to be exploited in future for integrated pest management (IPM) strategies. Further, this review also discussed the biology, phylogeny, distributions, classifications and types of Wolbachia infections on insect orders and coleopterans in particular.
