Two genotypic groups of morphologically similar fish trypanosomes from the Okavango Delta, Botswana.

Diseases of aquatic organisms - 23 Sept 2005

Abstract excerpt

Blood smears and blood lysate samples from freshwater fishes captured in the Okavango Delta, Botswana, were examined to determine whether their trypanosomes were all Trypanosoma mukasai, a species of supposed broad host specificity and widespread existence across Africa. Trypanosomes and/or babesiosomes occurred in 20/32 blood smears, and morphometric analysis of trypanosomes from 13/32 smears showed features...
