Interactions between microsporidia and other members of the microbiome
Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 71, Issue 5, September/October 2024.Abstract The microbiome is the collection of microbes that are associated with a host. Microsporidia are intracellular eukaryotic parasites that can infect most types of animals. In the last decade, there has been much progress to define the relationship between microsporidia and the microbiome.
