“…Conversely, no infections were detected in populations of the beetle Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) (Tenebrionidae) (n ¼ 9) or of the moth Plodia interpunctella (Hubner) (n ¼ 5). These results agree with previous reports for these species (Goodacre et al, 2015;Kageyama et al, 2010;Wade and Stevens, 1985). In contrast to this general pattern, infected (þ) and uninfected (À) populations were detected for T. confusum Jaquelin Du Val (Tenebrionidae) (15þ, 1À), and for Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky (1þ, 2À) and Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (1þ, 6À) (Curculionidae).…”

“…Infections in six of these species previously were reported by Kageyama et al (2010). The combined results of the current study, of Kageyama et al (2010) and of Heddi et al (1999) identify infections in at least 33% of stored product insects and their parasitoids. These include infections in 13 of 39 species of Coleoptera, 4 of 7 species of Lepidoptera, 2 of 4 species of Hymenoptera and in 0 of 4 species of Psocoptera.…”

“…This gene codes for an outer membrane protein specific to Wolbachia and has been commonly used in previous surveys Kageyama et al, 2010;Tagami and Miura, 2004;Zhou et al, 1998). The primers used here were wsp 81F (5 0 -TGGTCCAATAAGTGATGAAGAAAC-3 0 ) and wsp 691R (5 0 -AAAAATTAAACGCTACTCCA-3 0 ), which amplify an approximately 600-bp fragment of the wsp gene (Braig et al, 1998).…”

“…Removal of Wolbachia from the psocid Liposcelis tricolor (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae) reduces fecundity, longevity and immature survival, and prolongs development (Dong et al, 2007(Dong et al, , 2006Yusuf and Turner, 2004). A survey by Kageyama et al (2010) identified infections of Wolbachia in 33% of 38 storedproduct insect species tested.…”

“…First, we characterized the genetic diversity of Wolbachia isolates using six genes (wsp, hcpA, gatB, ftsZ, coxA, fbpA). This allows for comparison with previous studies, which used only one gene; e.g., wsp or ftsZ (Dong et al, 2006;Fialho and Stevens, 1997;Kageyama et al, 2010). Use of multiple genes also provides for multilocus sequence typing (MLST), which is advocated for genetic typing of Wolbachia isolates (Baldo et al, 2006;Paraskevopoulos et al, 2006).…”

Infection of intestinal tissues with Wolbachia has been found in Habrobracon hebetor. There are not many studies on the relationship between Habrobracon and Wolbachia, and they focus predominantly on the sex index of an infected parasitoid, its fertility, and behavior. The actual role of Wolbachia in the biology of Habrobracon is not yet clear. The method of complete eradication of Wolbachia in the parasitoid was developed here, and effects of the endosymbiont on the host's digestive metabolism were compared between two lines of the parasitoid (Wolbachia‐positive and Wolbachia‐negative). In the gut of Wolbachia+ larvae, lipases' activity was higher almost twofold, and activities of acid proteases, esterases, and trehalase were 1.5‐fold greater than those in the Wolbachia– line. Analyses of larval homogenates revealed that Wolbachia+ larvae accumulate significantly more lipids and have a lower amount of pyruvate as compared to Wolbachia– larvae. The presented results indicate significant effects of the intracellular symbiotic bacterium Wolbachia on the metabolism of H. hebetor larvae and on the activity of its digestive enzymes.
