Wolbachia Utilizes Host Microtubules and Dynein for Anterior Localization in the Drosophila Oocyte.
To investigate the role of the host cytoskeleton in the maternal transmission of the endoparasitic bacteria Wolbachia, we have characterized their distribution in the female germ line of Drosophila melanogaster. In the germarium, Wolbachia are distributed to all germ cells of the cyst, establishing...
