Introduction
The identification of N. apis and N. ceranae is important and still need further research. So far the best differentiation method is the use of species–specific primers; however, the sequence differences are limited to the ribosomal RNA loci, leading to overestimation of Nosema infection rate. Thanks to recent genome study of N. apis and N. ceranae, we proposed novel primers for differentiation of N. spp. based on highly conserved, species–specific protein coding genes rather than species–specific sequences in rRNA genes, which is likely to improve the accuracy of species identification.
