Molecular Epidemiology of Entamoeba spp.: Evidence of a Bottleneck (Demographic Sweep) and Transcontinental Spread of Diploid Parasites

1 Oct 2000

Abstract excerpt

Entamoeba histolytica causes amebic colitis and liver abscess in developing countries such as Mexico and India. Entamoeba dispar is morphologically identical but is not associated with disease. Here we determined the ploidy of E. histolytica and developed PCR-based methods for distinguishing field isolates of E. histolytica or E. dispar. Fluorescence in situ hybridization showed that E. histolytica trophozoites...
