PHAGE WO DIVERSITY AND EVOLUTIONARY FORCES ASSOCIATED WITH WOLBACHIA-INFECTED CRICKETS

IntroductionPhage WO represents the sole bacteriophage identified to infect Wolbachia, exerting a range of impacts on the ecological dynamics and evolutionary trajectories of its host.Given the extensive prevalence of Wolbachia across various species, phage WO is likely among the most prolific phage lineages within arthropod populations.To examine

Plant roots are very plastic and can adjust their tissue organization and cell appearance during abiotic stress responses.Previous studies showed that direct root illumination and sugar supplementation mask root growth phenotypes and traits.Sugar and light signaling where further connected to changes in auxin biosynthesis and distribution along the
