Genome sequence of the Wolbachia endosymbiont of Culex quinquefasciatus JHB

Journal of Bacteriology, Volume 191, No. 5, Year 2009

Wolbachia species are endosymbionts of a wide range of invertebrates, including mosquitoes, fruit flies, and nematodes. The wPip strains can cause cytoplasmic incompatibility in some strains of the Culex mosquito. Here we describe the genome sequence of a Wolbachia strain that was discovered in the whole-genome sequencing data for the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus strain JHB.
