Contents

Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) results when
Wolbachia
bacteria-infected male insects mate with uninfected females, leading to embryonic lethality. “Rescue” of viability occurs if the female harbors the same
Wolbachia

Wolbachia
genes called CI factors (CifA and CifB). The co-evolution of Ci...
