Abstract excerpt

Isolates of the protozoan parasite Cryptosporidium parvum have been differentiated into 2 genotypes: genotype 'H', which is associated only with human infections, and genotype 'C', which is associated with both human and animal infections. To date, the analysis of polymorphisms of genes and of the small subunit ribosomal DNA have revealed no heterogeneity within the 2 genotypes. In the present study, a locus...
