Cardinium disrupts Wolbachia–host dynamics in the domestic mite Tyrophagus putrescentiae: evidence from manipulative experiments

ABSTRACT We investigated the tripartite interactions between two intracellular bacterial symbionts, Cardinium and Wolbachia in Tyrophagus putrescentiae. Cultures of Tyrophagus putrescentiae are typically single-infected by one intracellular symbiont. However, co-infection can be experimentally induc...
