| phylogeny of the haplosporidia (eukaryota: alveolata) based on small subunit ribosomal rna gene sequence. | the phylogenetic position of the phylum haplosporidia was investigated with the complete small subunit rrna gene sequences from 5 species in the phylum: haplosporidium nelsoni and haplosporidium costale, parasites of the eastern oyster crassostrea virginica; haplosporidium louisiana, a parasite of the mudcrab panopeus herbstii; minchinia teredinis, a parasite of shipworms (teredo spp.) and urosporidium crescens, a hyperparasite found in metacercariae of the trematode megalophallus sp. in the blu ... | 1996 | 8691370 |
| a sensitive and specific dna probe for the oyster pathogen haplosporidium nelsoni. | haplosporidium nelsoni is a pathogen of the eastern oyster, crassostrea virginica, along the middle atlantic coast of the u.s. genomic dna was extracted from h. nelsoni plasmodia and small subunit (ssu) rdna was amplified by pcr, cloned and sequenced. the sequence of h. nelsoni ssu rdna was aligned with that of another haplosporidian, minchinia teredinis, and with ssu rdna data of c. virginica and various protists in genbank. a 21-base oligonucleotide unique to h. nelsoni, designated msx1347, wa ... | 1995 | 7620459 |
| small subunit ribosomal rna gene sequence of minchinia teredinis (haplosporidia: haplosporidiidae) and a specific dna probe and pcr primers for its detection. | minchinia teredinis is a pathogen of wood-boring molluscs (shipworms), teredo spp., along the middle atlantic coast of the u.s. genomic dna was extracted from m. teredinis spores and small subunit (ssu) rdna was amplified by pcr, cloned, and sequenced. the sequence of m. teredinis ssu rdna was aligned with that of haplosporidium nelsoni and various protists in genbank. a 22-base oligonucleotide probe unique to m. teredinis, designated min702, was commercially synthesized and tested for sensitivi ... | 1995 | 7745284 |
