The facultative intracellular symbiont Lariskella is neutral for lifetime fitness and spreads through cytoplasmic incompatibility in the leaffooted bug, Leptoglossus zonatus

Edwin F Umanzor, Suzanne E. Kelly, Alison Ravenscraft…·Martha S. Hunter

This study shows that the symbiont Lariskella causes cytoplasmic incompatibility in Leptoglossus zonatus but does not affect host fitness, while the absence of Caballeronia reduces survival and reproduction.
