Detection of Wolbachia wAlbB by Fluorescent in situ hybridization of C6/36.wAlbB cells. a Carbocyanine5-labelled oligonucleotide probe corresponding to nucleotide sequences in Wolbachia 16S rRNA within the cytoplasm of the host cell (red). Cell nuclei stain blue with DAPI. b Proportion of cells containing Wolbachia wAlbB detectable by FISH between passages 28 and 40. Images were taken at a magnification of 100×. Error bars represent the standard deviation of the mean of three independent cell culture samples. Statistical significance was calculated by Mann Whitney test (P < 0.05, denoted by **)
