Microbiota-mediated blocking of plasmodium falciparum sporozoites in Anopheles: a systematic review

Frontiers in Insect Science
IntroductionThe development of Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites in the mosquito, Anopheles, is essential for malaria transmission. Despite the unsurprising fact that the mosquito microbiota has become a major factor in the modulation of the competence ...

Cytological and molecular description of Hamiltosporidium tvaerminnensis gen. et sp. nov., a microsporidian parasite of Daphnia magna, and establishment of Hamiltosporidium magnivora comb. nov. [PDF]

, 2010
We describe the new microsporidium Hamiltosporidium tvaerminnensis gen. et sp. nov. with an emphasis on its ultrastructural characteristics and phylogenetic position as inferred from the sequence data of SSU rDNA, alpha-and beta-tubulin.

Stochastic invasion thresholds for transmission-blocking symbionts and malaria control under environmental noise

Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics
IntroductionTransmission-blocking symbionts may complement existing malaria vector-control tools, but their public-health value depends on two linked conditions: ecological establishment in mosquito populations and long-run prevalence high enough to ...

Breeding water parameters are important determinants of Microsporidia MB prevalence in the aquatic stages of Anopheles mosquitoes

Abstract The fungus, Microsporidia MB disrupts Plasmodium development in Anopheles mosquitoes. It has been associated with An. gambiae and An. coluzzii (Ghana), and An. arabiensis (Kenya) from rice fields. As a tool for vector/disease control, its ecological distribution and factors that determine their occurrence must be defined.

Porphyrins inactivate Nosema spp. microsporidia

, 2018
The study of organic/inorganic molecules with activity against intracellular fungi of the phylum Microsporidia is of critical importance. Here, for the first time, the inactivation of these parasitic fungi by porphyrins is reported.
