Article Title: Transmission Electron Microscopic Studies On The Gut Of The Silkworm, Bombyx Mori Linn- Infected With Microsporidia
by Shabir A. Bhat

Abstract:
Ultrastructure of gut of the silkworm, Bombyx mori infected with microsporidia exhibited cytoplasmic vacuolization in the form of large empty spaces, fewer mitochondria, different spore stages (meronts and spronts) as grayish black spheres and mature spores. The meronts and sporonts measured 0.61 and 0.56nm and 1.23 and 0.89nm in length and width respectively. The lightly infected gut could not show any vacuolization but in the heavily infected gut cell cytoplasm destruction resulted in the empty spaces.
