sporoplasm
Research Article | Molecular Biology and PhysiologyMorphology and Transcriptome Analysis of Nosema bombycis Sporoplasm and Insights into the Initial Infection of MicrosporidiaOnce awoken from dormancy, the cellular matter of microsporidia is delivered directly into the host cell cytoplasm through the polar tube. This means that the microsporidia are difficult to study biologically in their active state without a contaminating signal from the host cell. Sporoplasm is a cell type of microsporidia in vitro, but relatively little attention has been paid to the sporoplasm in the past 150 years due to a...
