genotypic distribution and phylogenetic characterization of enterocytozoon bieneusi in diarrheic chickens and pigs in multiple cities, china: potential zoonotic transmission.	this study investigated diarrheic broiler and layer chickens (<50 days; n=14) and pigs of three age groups (preweaned <30 days, weaned ≈30 to 60 days, and growing >60 days; n=64) for e. bieneusi genotypes in northeast china and evaluated the potential roles of chickens and pigs in zoonotic transmission of microsporidiosis. two 45-day-old layer chickens in city jixi, heilongjiang province and one 23-day-old broiler chicken in city songyuan, jilin province were identified to harbor a human-pathoge ...	2014	25255117
dominance of giardia duodenalis assemblage a and enterocytozoon bieneusi genotype beb6 in sheep in inner mongolia, china.	to examine the occurrence and genotype distribution of giardia duodenalis and enterocytozoon bieneusi in sheep, fecal specimens were collected from 162 lambs and 213 ewes on seven farms in the hulunbeier prairie in inner mongolia, china. by pcr analysis of the triose-phosphate isomerase gene, 16 of the 375 (4.3%) specimens were positive for g. duodenalis, with 13 sequenced successfully belonging to assemblage a. lambs had a significantly higher infection rate than ewes (8.6% versus 0.9%, respect ...	2015	25944405
