Nephrology, Volume 30, Issue 9, September 2025.ABSTRACT Microsporidia are emerging opportunistic pathogens in immunosuppressed individuals, including solid organ transplant recipients. We present a case of tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) caused by Microsporidia infection in a 55‐year‐old male who underwent combined liver–kidney transplantation (CLKT) for metabolic‐associated fatty liver disease ...

Multiple losses of sex within a single genus of Microsporidia
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007 Background Most asexual eukaryotic lineages have arisen recently from sexual ancestors and contain few ecologically distinct species, providing evidence for long-term advantages of sex. Ancient asexual lineages provide rare exceptions to this rule and so

Benefits of host genetic diversity for resistance to infection depend on parasite diversity [PDF]
, 2010 Host populations with high genetic diversity are predicted to have lower levels of infection prevalence. This theory assumes that host genetic diversity results in variation in susceptibility and that parasites exhibit variation in infectivity. Empirical

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2025.ABSTRACT Intra‐sinoatrial nematodes were incidentally recognized in wild‐caught Colorado Johnny Darters (Etheostoma nigrum, JD) in 2020–2021 and in Colorado Plains Topminnow (Fundulus sciadicus, PTM) in 2023‐2024. PTM and JD were evaluated histologically.

Three's a crowd: The relationship among endoparasites, an epibiont and their Daphnia host
Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 8, August 2025.In freshwater communities, organisms interact in a variety of ways, including predation, competition and parasitism. Parasites are ubiquitous, playing an important role in shaping freshwater communities. Endoparasites live within internal organs of their host, while ectoparasites, also known as epibionts, are confined to the external part of the host's

Within-host transmission strategies of transovarial, feminizing parasites of Gammarus duebeni [PDF]
, 1998 The amphipod Gammarus duebeni harbours several species of vertically transmitted, feminizing microsporidian parasites. G. duebeni were collected from 3 localities in the UK. Animals from Budle Bay, Northumberland, were infected with Octosporea effeminans,
