- The microbiome of pest insects: it is not just bacteria (2019, background): “These reproductive parasites can induce feminization, male-specific killing, cytoplasmic incompatibility, and parthenogenesis in their hosts to enhance their own transmission (Kageyama et al., 2002; Werren et al., 2008).”
- Ecological genetics of invasive alien species (2011, background): “In addition, there is mounting evidence of extensive horizontal transmission of endosymbionts between different host species (reviewed in Werren et al. 2008).”
- Still a Host of Hosts for Wolbachia: Analysis of Recent Data Suggests That 40% of Terrestrial Arthropod Species Are Infected (2012, neutral): “Wolbachia are the predominant bacterial endosymbionts of arthropods, infecting a vast number of host species worldwide [1].”
- Complex patterns of global spread in invasive insects: eco-evolutionary and management consequences (2016, background): “In addition, there is growing evidence of symbiont switching in novel communities (Werren et al. 2008; Taerum et al. 2013).”
- Applying molecular-based approaches to classical biological control of weeds (2011, neutral): “egg-sperm incompatibilities) (Floate et al., 2006; Werren et al., 2008).”
- BlobToolKit – Interactive Quality Assessment of Genome Assemblies (2019, background): “Wolbachia are intracellular symbionts that commonly manipulate the reproductive biology of their hosts (Werren et al. 2008), and insect-infecting strains have genomes of (cid:1) 1.4 Mb.”
- Bacterial symbionts as mediators of ecologically important traits of insect hosts (2011, background): “Interestingly, even seemingly well characterised symbionts such as Wolbachia (Werren et al., 2008; Engelstädter & Hurst, 2009) are frequently found to be responsible for wider range of holobiont phenotypes than formerly assumed (Teixeira et al.”
