Data from: Wolbachia infection and dramatic intraspecific mitochondrial DNA divergence in a fig wasp
Jin-Hua Xiao, Ning-Xin Wang, Robert W. Murphy, James M. Cook, Ling-Yi Jia & Da-Wei Huang
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...
