Abstract excerpt
We have cloned and sequenced the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer-1 (ITS1) of Cryptosporidium wrairi. Phylogenetic analysis of this region provided further support to the validity of C. wrairi as a distinct species and also to the concept that many of the genotypes recently identified within C. parvum are in fact separate species. Analysis placed the "cattle" and "mouse" genotypes of C. parvum as each...
