Comprehensive characterization of the impairing effects of Nosema bombycis on the host digestive integrity and function

mSphere
Nosema bombycis (N. bombycis) infection causes growth retardation and indigestion of silkworms (Bombyx mori). The digestive tract is the primary infection route; thereby, in this study, we comprehensively investigated the disturbances of the digestive ...
