Abstract(s)

Rohrscheib et al. (PLOS Pathogens, 2016) discuss the interaction between the pathogenicity of the wMel variant wMelPop, temperature and Octomom copy number. The effect of temperature on wMelPop pathogenicity was already reported in the original work on wMelPop. The absence of pathogenicity at low temperatures was also shown before. We have recently demonstrated, in Chrostek and Teixeira 2015, that Octomom copy number determines wMelPop pathogenicity.
