Niche and ecosystem preference of earliest diverging fungi in soils [PDF]

Mycology, 2023
Within the supergroup Rotosphaeromycetes, or “Holomycota”/“Nucletmycea”, there are several well-recognised unicellular clades in the earliest diverging fungi (EDF). However, we know little about their occurrence.

A New Host for Pleistophora ovariae (Microsporida)

The Journal of Parasitology, 1977
Pleistophora ovariae, a microsporidan parasite that infects ovaries of the golden shiner (Notemigonus crysoleucas), is a widespread problem for minnow culturists. It occurred in shiners held at 45 of 49 commercial fish farms inspected by Summerfelt and Warner (1970, Journal of Wildlife Diseases 6: 457-465). This microsporidan causes considerable damage

Emerging Intestinal Microsporidia Infection in HIV(+)/AIDS Patients in Iran: Microscopic and Molecular Detection [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Parasitology, 2014
Background: Species of Microsporidia have been known as opportunistic obli-gate intracellular parasites particularly in immunocompromised patients. Enterocyto-zoon bieneusi is one of most prevalent intestinal microsporida parasites in HIV+/AIDS patients.

Monoclonal antibodies to cytoplasmic antigens of Nosema locustae (Microsporida: Nosematidae). [PDF]

J Invertebr Pathol, 2001
Microsporidia are eukaryotic, intracellular protozoa that infect a wide range of vertebrate and invertebrate hosts with almost half of the described genera affecting insects. Nosema locustae, which infects approximately 90 species of grasshoppers, has been used as a biological control agent for these insects and is registered as a microbial insecticide

Field host range of the fire ant pathogens Thelohania solenopsae (Microsporida: Thelohaniidae) and Vairimorpha invictae (Microsporida: Burenellidae) in South America [PDF]

Biological Control, 2002
We studied the field host specificity of the microsporidia Thelohania solenopsae and Vairimorpha invictae and their prevalence in the imported fire ants, Solenopsis invicta and S. richteri. Terrestrial ants were sampled by using bait traps and/or nest sampling at preselected sites in Argentina and Brazil.

Transmission and infectivity of spores of Burenella dimorpha (Microsporida: Burenellidae)

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1981
Abstract Burenella dimorpha infects the tropical fire ant, Solenopsis geminata , producing two morphologically distinct types of spores. A binucleate, nonpansporoblast membrane-bounded (NPMB) spore develops in and destroys the hypodermis, rupturing the cuticle in the pupal stage.

Revisions to the Classification, Nomenclature, and Diversity of Eukaryotes

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 1, Page 4-119, January/February 2019., 2019
Abstract This revision of the classification of eukaryotes follows that of Adl et al., 2012 [J. Euk. Microbiol. 59(5)] and retains an emphasis on protists. Changes since have improved the resolution of many nodes in phylogenetic analyses. For some clades even families are being clearly resolved.

Association of Ovavesicula popilliae (Microsporida: Ovavesiculidae) with Winter Mortality of Larvae and Reduced Fecundity of Female Japanese Beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)

Environmental Entomology, 2011
Populations of Japanese beetle at sites in Michigan where Ovavesicula popilliae (Andreadis) was introduced in 1999 and 2000 were compared with nearby control sites from fall of 2005 through spring of 2008. Percent infection by O.

A serological comparison of some species of microsporida

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1978
Abstract Double immunodiffusion techniques were used to investigate the taxonomic relationships between six different microsporidian isolates. Microsporidia used included Nosema bombycis, N. algerae, N. plodiae , and three organisms morphologically similar to N. necatrix .

Infestation level and ecological association of Nosema spp. (Microsporida: Nosematidae) and Varroa destructor (Mesostigmata: Varroidae) in honeybee colonies in south-west Nigeria

Anales de Biología
Se estudió el nivel de infestación y la asociación ecológica de Nosema spp. y Varroa destructor en abejas. La tasa de infestación (Mn±SD) de V. destructor osciló entre el 1,05 ± 0,64% y el 9,02 ± 4,98%. La prevalencia de Nosema spp., en el estado de Osun,
