• The Endosymbiotic Bacterium Wolbachia Induces Resistance to Dengue Virus in Aedes aegypti (2010, neutral): “aegypti [20].”
• Defensive symbiosis: a microbial perspective (2014, background): “This mechanism is not limited to higher animals but occurs also in invertebrates and plants (Moreira et al. 2009; Jung et al. 2012; Hussa & Goodrich-Blair 2013).”
• Bacterial symbionts as mediators of ecologically important traits of insect hosts (2011, background): “, 2008; Glaser & Meola, 2010) and other dipterans that are important vectors for viral diseases such as Culex quinquefasciatus or Aedes aegypti (Moreira et al., 2009; Glaser & Meola, 2010).”
• The microbiome of pest insects: it is not just bacteria (2019, background): “Another example of cross-kingdom interactions are the dramatic effects thatWolbachia bacteria can have on transmission of pathogenic viruses and parasitic protozoa that are vectored by insects (Moreira et al., 2009; Bian et al., 2010; Rainey et al., 2014; Johnson, 2015).”
