Centennial Professor Seth Bordenstein presented to Colorado State University on April 27, 2021 on the hologenomic (host and microbial) bases of reproductive isolation and speciation in animals. This research seminar summarizes how maternally-transmitted bacterial symbionts (Wolbachia) and the gut microbiome contribute to the speciation process in a group of model insects that are amenable to interbreeding and detailed genetic and symbiotic studies.
