Descriptor English: Symbiont Induced Cytoplasmic Incompatibility
Descriptor Spanish: Incompatibilidad Citoplasmática Inducida por Simbiontes
Descriptor incompatibilidad citoplasmática inducida por simbiontes
Scope note: Fenómeno reproductivo que tiene lugar de forma natural en los INVERTEBRADOS en el que solo ciertas combinaciones de cruces dan como resultado embriones viables debido a la incompatibilidad entre los espermatozoides y los óvulos causada por diferencias en los parásitos intracelulares (simbiontes). Por ejemplo, una bacteria simbionte heredada por vía materna, como puede ser WOLBACHIA, induce cambios en los espermatozoides del huésped, causando defectos mitóticos en el embrión fertilizado solo en cruces entre machos y hembras simbiónticos portadores de un simbionte diferente o de ningún simbionte.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000094402
Scope note: A naturally occurring reproductive phenomenon of INVERTEBRATES in which only certain combination of crosses result in viable embryos due to incompatibility between sperm and egg cells that is caused by differences in intracellular parasites (symbionts). For example, a maternally inherited symbiont bacteria, e.g., WOLBACHIA, induces changes in sperm of the host, causing mitotic defects in the fertilized embryo only in crosses between symbiotic males and females harboring a different or no symbiont.
