Cytoplasmic incompatibility in insects
Abstract
Cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) was first described in mosquitoes by Ghelelovitch (1952) and studied in detail by Laven in the 1950s (reviewed in Laven 1967b). Laven observed that crosses between different strains of mosquitoes sometimes failed to produce progeny, or produced progeny only when crossed in one direction (i.e. crosses of males from one strain with females from another produce progeny, but not the reciprocal cross). Laven showed that cytoplasmic factors were involved. This led to the isolation of Wolbachia microorganisms as the causative agent of incompatibility by Yen and others.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
