Specific and sensitive detection of Nosema bombi (Microsporidia: Nosematidae) in bumble bees ( Bombus spp.; Hymenoptera: Apidae) by PCR of partial rRNA gene sequences

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based method was developed for the specific and sensitive diagnosis of the microsporidian parasite Nosema bombi in bumble bees ( Bombus spp.). Four primer pairs, amplifying ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene fragments, were tested on N. bombi and the related microsporidia No...
