Mitochondria and Wolbachia are maternally inherited genomes that exhibit
strong linkage disequilibrium in many organisms. We surveyed Wolbachia
infections in 187 specimens of the fig wasp species, Ceratosolen solmsi,
and found an infection prevalence of 89.3%. DNA Sequencing of 20
individuals each from Wolbachia-infected and uninfected sub-populations
revealed extreme mtDNA divergence (up to 9.2% and 15.3% in CO1 and
cytochrome b, respectively) between infected and uninfected wasps.
Further, mtDNA diversity was significantly reduced within the infected
group. Our sequencing of a large part of the mitochondrial genome from
both Wolbachia-infected and uninfected individuals revealed that high
sequence divergence is common throughout the mitochondrial genome. These
patterns suggest a partial selective sweep of mitochondria subsequent to
the introduction of Wolbachia into C. solsmi, by hybrid introgression from
a related species.
Supplementary file 1_table 1The amino acids sites that varied among the
cow and Wolbachia-infected and uninfected Ceratosolen solmsi for co1 and
Cob protein sequences.Supplementary file 2_opsinPartial opsin gene
sequences from four individuals of Ceratosolen solmsi, two of which were
infected by Wolbachia and two were uninfected. Only six of the 1014 sites
differed.Supplementary file 3_ITS2ITS2 sequences from Ceratosolen solmsi.
Seven individuals are infected with Wolbachia and five were uninfected.
The sequence lengths were 506 bp and 11 sites differed, which may be due
to either individual variation or inevitable PCR errors.
