Maternally inherited Wolbachia and Cardinium are widely distributed among arthropods, and their presence usually causes modifications of the reproduction and fitness of the host. Although co-infections of Cardinium and Wolbachia in the same host is common, yet relatively little is known about the multiple infections on host or the individual effects of each symbiont. In this study, we investigated the effects of, and interaction between, Wolbachia and Cardinium in the doubly infected two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae (red form) in China. The individual cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) level, bacteria density, fecundity, and host longevity were examined. Our results indicate that Wolbachia induced a week level of CI, while Cardinium-infected and doubly infected males causes severe CI. Wolbachia and Cardinium could not modify the CI strength and rescue CI each other. Wolbachia inhibited the proliferation of Cardinium in double-infected mites. The infection with Cardinium alone enhanced the fecundity of infected females. Interestingly, we found survival benefit in Wolbachia-infected, Cardinium-infected and the doubly infected females. We discuss the results observed with respect to the spread of bacterial infection in natural populations.
