Wolbachia positively affects the female fecundity and offspring mass of Drosophila suzukii following a diet shift.

Wolbachia

Pseudomonadota
Bacteria
Intracellular

Wolbachia uses its parthenogenesis-induction feminization factor (piff) gene to modulate sex determination in Encarsia formosa by regulating doublesex (dsx) expression, resulting in haploid male offspring when the symbiont is removed.
