This project investigates how bacterial endosymbionts influence sex determination in the isopod crustacean Armadillidium vulgare. By analyzing genetic interactions with Wolbachia, the research aims to uncover the molecular mechanisms driving sex determination and the evolutionary implications of these interactions.
Appreciation of endosymbiosis, a type of symbiosis in which a microbial partner lives within its host cells, as an important source of evolutionary novelty has developed relatively recently.
In this proposal, we investigate a fundamental evolutionary process influenced by bacterial endosymbionts: the mechanisms of sex determination of their eukaryotic hosts.In animals, the most common system of sex determination is genetic.
It can also be affected by inherited bacterial endosymbionts.
However, v…
