Potential Risks and Prevention Strategies of Common Diseases and Intestinal Opportunistic Pathogenic Bacteria in Bullfrog (Aquarana catesbeiana) Culture: A Review

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bullfrogs (Aquarana catesbeiana) are an important aquaculture species worldwide. However, diseases have caused significant losses to the bullfrog industry. Given the crucial role of the intestinal microbiota (IM) in bullfrog growth, nutrition, immunity, and health, as well as the potential of probiotics and Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) to regulate ...

Identification and Characterization of Three Spore Wall Proteins of Enterocytozoon Bieneusi

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Enterocytozoon bieneusi is the most common microsporidian pathogen in farm animals and humans. Although several spore wall proteins (SWPs) of other human-pathogenic microsporidia have been identified, SWPs of E. bieneusi remain poorly characterized.

Interactions between microsporidia and other members of the microbiome

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 71, Issue 5, September/October 2024.
Abstract The microbiome is the collection of microbes that are associated with a host. Microsporidia are intracellular eukaryotic parasites that can infect most types of animals. In the last decade, there has been much progress to define the relationship between microsporidia and the microbiome.

Frequent Occurrence of Mixed Enterocytozoon bieneusi Infections in Humans [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Enterocytozoon bieneusi (phylum Microsporidia ) is a human pathogen with a broad host range. Following the sequencing of 3.8 Mb of the estimated 6-Mb E. bieneusi genome, simple sequence repeats (micro- and minisatellites) were identified. Sequencing of four such
