The putative start and termination points were determined by
comparison to the N. apis LSUrRNA sequence. The LSUr- RNA sequence
shares 89% and 75% identity, respectively, with that of N. apis
(GenBank accession No. U97150) and the type species of Nosema bombycis
(GenBank accession No. AY259631).

The maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree obtained from the complete
LSUrRNA sequences shows that N. apis, this isolate and Microsporidium
57864 (GenBank accession number U90885) form a clade wherein this
isolate is more closely related to the species Microsporidium 57864
than to N. apis.

In addition, the Nosema type species, N. bombycis, and N. spodopterae
are located in another clade. [A different branch on the phylogenic
tree]
