  • Title: Origins of microsporidia.
    Author: Keeling PJ, McFadden GI.
    Journal: Trends Microbiol; 1998 Jan; 6(1):19-23. PubMed ID: 9481819.
    Abstract:
    Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites that infect a wide range of eukaryotes, causing severe diseases in immunocompromised humans and losses to apiaries, fisheries and silk farms. They have often been considered to be primitive eukaryotes; however, more recent evidence suggests they are more closely related to fungi.
