The smell of infection: Disease surveillance in insects using volatile organic compounds
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 81-89, February 2025.Abstract Insects play crucial roles in nearly every ecosystem and provide a wide array of ecosystem services. However, both managed and wild insect populations face threats from parasites and pathogens, which require surveillance to mitigate. Current infectious disease surveillance methods for insects often involve invasive, time‐consuming and ...

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.

Identification and localization of SAS-6 in the microsporidium Nosema bombycis
Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2019 The centriole in eukaryotes functions as the cell's microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) to nucleate spindle assembly. The evolutionarily conserved protein SAS-6 constitutes the center of the cartwheel assembly that scaffolds centrioles early in their biogenesis.

Genome evolution in intracellular parasites: Microsporidia and Apicomplexa
Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 71, Issue 5, September/October 2024.Abstract Microsporidia and Apicomplexa are eukaryotic, single‐celled, intracellular parasites with huge public health and economic importance. Typically, these parasites are studied separately, emphasizing their uniqueness and diversity. In this review, we explore the huge amount of genomic data that has recently become available for the two groups. We

Genomics and phylogenetic relationships of microsporidia and their relatives
Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 71, Issue 5, September/October 2024.Abstract Microsporidia are intracellular parasites that all possess a unique infection apparatus involving a polar tube. Upon contact with a host cell, this tube forms the conduit through which the parasite enters the host. Infecting mostly animals, microsporidian species can be transmitted vertically or horizontally, and exert various effects on their

Genômica Comparativa de Microsporídios : a descrição de uma nova espécie, delimitação taxonômica e a origem das arquiteturas genômicas [PDF]
, 2022 Microsporídios são organismos peculiares, parasitas intracelulares obrigatórios rela- cionados aos fungos. Desde a descoberta desses organismos, sua classificação e origem é controversa, pois sua estrutura e morfologia celular são muito distintas de ...

Human Microsporidial Infections [PDF]
, 2006 Microsporidia are eukaryotic, spore forming obligate intracellular parasites, first recognised over 100 years ago. Microsporidia are becoming increasingly recognised as infectious pathogens causing intestinal and extra-intestinal diseases in both immuno ...
