Biological and molecular features of Nosema rachiplusiae sp. n., a microsporidium isolated from the neotropical moth Rachiplusia nu (Guenée) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Light, electron microscopy and DNA analyses were performed to characterize a microsporidium infecting Rachiplusia nu larvae from a laboratory rearing in Argentina. Diplokaryotic spores were oval and measured 3.61 ± 0.29 × 1.61 ± 0.14 μM (fresh). The spore wall was composed of an electron-dense exosp...
