Temperature modulates the dissemination potential of Microsporidia MB, a malaria-blocking endosymbiont of Anopheles mosquitoes

Abstract The endosymbiont Microsporidia MB is a promising malaria control strategy that inhibits the development of Plasmodium naturally in Anopheles mosquitoes.

Prevalence, Genetic Diversity of Microsporidia MB, and Correlation to Insecticide Resistance in Anopheles gambiae s.l. and Anopheles funestus Mosquitoes in Busia, Kenya

Abstract Background: The discovery of Microsporidia MB, a malaria-impairing symbiont in Anopheles arabiensis, suggests its potential for malaria control. This study investigated its prevalence and diversity in An. gambiae s.l. and An. funestus in Busia, Kenya. The study also explored its association with insecticide resistance and environmental

Microsporidia (microsporans)

, 2012
The Microsporidia, also known as Microspora, are a monophyletic phylum of tiny eukaryotic parasites. Growth and reproduction can occur only within host cells. Early research on the ribosomal genes of Microsporidia placed them at the base of the eukaryote

Walsh & Hoyt: Microsporidia

, 2005
The phylum Microsporidia consists of about 150 genera and more than 1200 species. Organisms belonging to this phylum are called microsporidia. Microsporidia are obligate intracellular, spore-forming protozoa.
