Disseminated Infection Caused by Novel Species of Microsporidium, Thailand

Disseminated Infection Caused by Novel Species of Microsporidium, Thailand

We describe a case of microsporidial myositis in a healthy man from Thailand. The small subunit rRNA sequence of this microsporidium is novel and has a close phylogenetic relationship with Endoreticulatus, a genus of lepidopteran microsporidia. Myositis could be caused by more genera of microsporidi...
