Evidence for multiple origins of human infectivity in Trypanosoma brucei revealed by minisatellite variant repeat mapping.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Mar 2001

MacLeod A, Welburn S, Maudlin I, Turner C M, Tait A

Abstract excerpt

In recent years a wide variety of biochemical and molecular typing systems has been employed in the study of parasite diversity aimed at investigating the level of genetic diversity and delineating the relationship between different species and subspecies. However, such methods have failed to differentiate between two of the classically defined subspecies of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei: the human...
