Real-time PCR strategy for the identification of Trypanosoma cruzi discrete typing units directly in chronically infected human blood.

Infection, genetics and evolution : journal of molecular epidemiology and evolutionary genetics in infectious diseases - 1 Apr 2017

Muñoz-San Martín Catalina, Apt Werner, Zulantay Inés

Abstract excerpt

The protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease, a major public health problem in Latin America. This parasite has a complex population structure comprised by six or seven major evolutionary lineages (discrete typing units or DTUs) TcI-TcVI and TcBat, some of which have apparently resulted from ancient hybridization events. Because of the existence of significant biological differences...
