Extensive genetic diversity in Blastocystis hominis.

Molecular and biochemical parasitology - 1 Jul 1997

Clark C G

Abstract excerpt

Blastocystis homonis is a common human parasite of uncertain role in human disease. Approximately equal numbers of reports implicate it and exonerate it as a pathogen. Genetic diversity in B. hominis was investigated using riboprinting to study sequence variation in the small subunit ribosomal RNA genes of 30 randomly selected isolates. Extensive sequence variation was discovered in B. hominis ribosomal RNA genes...
