From genomes to field diagnostics: Advances in detection and molecular understanding of Pebrine disease in silkworms.

Pebrine, caused by genus Nosema, is one of the most destructive diseases affecting silkworms. Because the pathogen can be transmitted both vertically and horizontally, infection can persist across successive generations, resulting in substantial reductions in cocoon yield and silk quality. Microscopic examination remai...
