Small subunit ribosomal metabarcoding reveals extraordinary trypanosomatid diversity in Brazilian bats.

PLoS neglected tropical diseases - 1 Jul 2017

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Bats are a highly successful, globally dispersed order of mammals that occupy a wide array of ecological niches. They are also intensely parasitized and implicated in multiple viral, bacterial and parasitic zoonoses. Trypanosomes are thought to be especially abundant and diverse in bats. In this study, we used 18S ribosomal RNA metabarcoding to probe bat trypanosome diversity in unprecedented detail....
