Cellular distribution of a feminizing microsporidian parasite: a strategy for transovarial transmission [PDF]
The cellular distribution of a vertically transmitted, feminizing microsporidian was followed in its host Gammarus duebeni. In adult females the parasite was restricted to gonadal tissue, in particular primary and secondary follicle cells.

A New Host for Pleistophora ovariae (Microsporida)
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

Segregation of a microsporidian parasite during host cell mitosis [PDF]
We investigated the segregation of an intracellular microsporidian parasite during host cell division. A time-course experiment was carried out to examine the distribution of parasites relative to host chromosomal DNA via light and electron microscopy.

A serological comparison of some species of microsporida
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 .
