In-Depth Information
Recently, other symbionts involved in parthenogenesis have been discovered, i.e., the CFB
bacterium in the parasitoid wasp
Encarsia
and the verrucomicrobial species in nematodes. The
latter case shows that not only haplodiploids should be looked upon as possible hosts for PI
microbes; in addition, the fact that PI has evolved outside
Wolbachia
should stimulate the search
for additional parthenogenesis-causing symbionts.
