Abstract excerpt
Giardia duodenalis assemblage B is potentially a zoonotic parasite. The characterisation and investigation of isolates has been hampered by greater genetic diversity of assemblage B, limiting the application and utility of current genotyping loci. Since whole genome sequencing is the optimal high-throughput method for gene identification, the present study sequenced assemblage B isolate BAH15c1 and compared the...
