Isolation of the Parasite Enterocytospora artemiae From Chinese Grass Shrimp (Palaemonetes sinensis)—First Report in Asia [PDF]
Chinese grass shrimp (Palaemonetes sinensis) is an economically important crustacean in Chinese aquaculture. Recently, we found that shrimp in Panjin city were infected with microsporidia, a group of fungi.

Development of a Quantitative PCR Method for Specific and Quantitative Detection of Enterocytospora artemiae, a Microsporidian Parasite of Chinese Grass Shrimp (Palaemonetes sinensis) [PDF]
Enterocytospora artemiae (EAM) mainly parasitizes the hepatopancreas of Palaemonetes sinensis. Serious infection leads to hepatopancreatic lesions, which greatly reduce the vitality of P. sinensis. Currently, EAM is detected via conventional PCR methods.

Wide geographic distribution of overlooked parasites: Rare Microsporidia in Gammarus balcanicus, a species complex with a high rate of endemism [PDF]
Parasites and other symbionts deeply influence host organisms, and no living organism can be considered to have evolved independent of its symbionts. The first step towards understanding symbiotic influences upon host organisms is a strong supporting ...

The emergence of the microsporidian, Enterocytospora artemiae, has caused serious economic losses to the aquaculture industry of Palaemonetes sinensis. The hepatopancreas is the main digestive and immune organ of P. sinensis, and the main site of E. artemiae infection. We used next-generation sequencing to determine the effects of E.

Hidden diversity of two intracellular parasites, Microsporidia and Rickettsia, in New Zealand amphipod hosts: patterns and causes [PDF]
Intracellular parasites, endosymbionts that are specialised to live in host cells, have evolved independently in many different lineages. Endosymbionts can be transmitted vertically and horizontally, and many of them maintain intimate associations with ...
