• Overview and relevance of Wolbachia bacteria in biocontrol research (2006, methodology): “Previous surveys across orders have detected Wolbachia in 17 30% of tested species, although one survey reported a prevalence of 76% (see Table 1 in Stevens et al. 2001).”
• Incompatible insect technique: incompatible males from a Ceratitis capitata genetic sexing strain (2009, background): “Wolbachia pipientis (Wolbachia for the purpose of this study) is a group of gram-negative, obligatory intracellular and maternally inherited bacteria that infect a number of invertebrate species, including mites, spiders, crustaceans, filarial nematodes, and in particular insects (O’Neill et al., 19”
