Wolbachia
Pseudomonadota |
Bacteria
|
Intracellular
|
Wolbachia affects the post-eclosion host preference of female Trichogramma brassicae wasps; infected wasps did not show any host preference and more frequently switched hosts, while uninfected wasps significantly preferred the host species they developed on. Additionally, Wolbachia significantly improved the emergence rate of infected wasps when reared on new hosts. |
