Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Ascosferosis o cría yesificada. [...] La infección se produce cuando las larvas ingieren alimento contaminado con esporas del hongo. Estas esporas germinan en el intestino y comienzan a crecer, invaden los tejidos, hasta emerger a la superficie de la larva y recubrirlas totalmente. En principio, las larvas muertas presentan un aspecto algodonoso (blanco o negro) y luego se desecan y momifican. 3, record 1, Spanish, - ascosferosis
