Variation in Wolbachia effects on Aedes mosquitoes as a determinant of invasiveness and vectorial capacity

Wolbachia infection in mosquitoes reduces dengue virus spread under specific lab conditions, prompting its use in disease control. Here, King et al. show that Wolbachia increases mean and variance in mosquito susceptibility and explain how this affects Wolbachia invasion and dengue transmission.
