Abstract excerpt

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is one of the most neglected tropical diseases, caused by different Leishmania species. Despite its high incidence in Morocco, CL due to Leishmania tropica is poorly understood in terms of its epidemiological status and population structure. In this study, we used multilocus sequence typing (MLST) in order to explore the genetic heterogeneity of L. tropica strains. Samples (N = 48)...
