Project name: Wolbachia pipientis wMelPop-CLA

Description: The Wolbachia strain wMelPop-CLA is a derivative of the strain wMelPop. wMelPop was purified from its natural host, Drosophila melanogaster, and transinfected into mosquito cell lines (Aa23 and subsequently RML12). This cell-line adapted strain was sequenced after approximately 3.5 years in cell culture.

Data type: genome sequencing
