Additional file 4: of Wolbachia pseudogenes and low prevalence infections in tropical but not temperate Australian tephritid fruit flies: manifestations of lateral gene transfer and endosymbiont spillover?

Relationship between prevalence of Wolbachia infection in twelve tephritid species and the midpoint of their latitudinal distribution, based on Hancock et al. [ 32 ] and Royer and Hancock [ 33 ] (R 2  = 0.86, F 1,10  = 71.43; p  < 0.001). At least ten individuals were tested for uninfected species (B. cacuminata, B. chorista, B. jarvisi, D. aequalis, D. pornia). (PDF 126 kb)
