[Presence of synaptonematic complexes in the biological cycle of Gurleya chironomi Loubes and Maurand, 1975: an argument in favor of sexuality in microsporidia].
Synaptonemal complexes are described in the prophasic nucleus of young pansporoblasts of Gurleya chironomi. Consequently the first mitosis of this nucleus might be a reductional one and sporogony a haploid phase in the life cycle of this Microsporidia.
