Easy labeling of proliferative phase and sporogonic phase of microsporidia Nosema bombycis in host cells. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2017 Microsporidia are eukaryotic, unicellular parasites that have been studied for more than 150 years. These organisms are extraordinary in their ability to invade a wide range of hosts including vertebrates and invertebrates, such as human and commercially

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.

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

Infection and transmission of Nosema bombi in Bombus terrestris colonies and its effect on hibernation, mating and colony founding [PDF]
, 2008 The impact of the microsporidium Nosema bombi on Bombus terrestris was studied by recording mating, hibernation success, protein titre in haemolymph, weight change during hibernation, and colony founding of queens that were inoculated with N.

Identification and Quantification of Nosema sp. Gene Expression in H. halys.
, 2014 A) PCR confirmation of a Nosema sp. 18S rRNA gene from cDNA. Amplicon sequencing confirmed a Nosema origin of the 472bp band (data not shown). B) qRT-PCR amplification of a histone protein gene similar to a homologous instance from Nosema bombycis.
