Aims:TheAedes albopictusC7‐10 cell line was infected withWolbachiastrainswRi andwAlbB to create C7‐10R and C7‐10B cell lines, respectively. We compared two different methods, fluorescencein situhybridization staining and SYTO11 staining, to describe these newWolbachiainfections in C7‐10.Methods and Results:Both staining methods were as efficient to stainWolbachia. A formula was developed to quantifyWolbachiainfection. The infection levels in C7‐10B and C7‐10R differed. The live stain SYTO11 was found to be useful to visualizeWolbachiain replicating host cells. Its potential cytotoxic effect at high concentration was investigated.Conclusions:C7‐10 supported twoWolbachiainfections, constituting new tools to studyWolbachia–host interactions. The different infection levels suggest thatwRi andwAlbB have different requirements for their survival in C7‐10 host cell line. Observation of SYTO11‐stained live cells gave new insights onWolbachiasegregation pattern during host cell mitosis.Significance and Impact of the Study:Wolbachia‐induced phenotypes in their arthropod and worm hosts could potentially be used to control pest populations. However, the mechanisms underlying these phenotypes are difficult to study because ofWolbachia’s intracellular lifestyle. TheWolbachiainfections in C7‐10 described here could be used asin vitromodels to investigateWolbachiabiology.
