Abstract excerpt
Trichomoniasis, caused by Trichomonas vaginalis (T. vaginalis, TV), is the most common non-viral sexually transmitted infection (STI) among women worldwide. However, the correlation between TV genetic diversity and pathogenicity remains unclear. We sought to achieve simple and effective differentiation of the pathogenicity of TV clinical isolates based on nucleotide variations in key genes associated with...
