To achieve Male killing (MK), Wolbachia impaired the host dosage compensation system and triggered abnormal apoptosis in male embryos.Also, disrupted the sex-determination cascade of males by inducing female-type splice variants of doublesex (dsx), a downstream regulator of the sex-determining gene cascade.
