Science literature summaries

23% of genes are DEGs between Drosophila individuals due to differences in body size, weight, etc.  Hence, a pool of 5 or more replicates would yield better result. source: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-021-90857-5

Different hosts respond differently to the same Wolbachia strain. Notes: There are more than 100k Wolbachia strains Benefits to host also vary - Vitamin C to Cimex lectularius bedbugs; but virus protection to Dmel. source: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-021-90857-5

Axenic males produce only 66% of eggs when mated with CV females compared to CV males crossed with CV females. Also, axenic males mated with axenic females produce only 62% compared to CV couples.  Source: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-75156-9#:~:text=We%20further%20observed%20that%20the,switch%20of%20the%20female's%20transcriptome.
