Contiguous and complete assemblies of <i>Blastocystis</i> gut microbiome-associated protists reveal evolutionary diversification to host ecology

2023-11-20

Abstract excerpt

Blastocystis , an obligate host-associated protist, is the most common microbial eukaryote in the human gut and is widely distributed across vertebrate hosts. The evolutionary transition of Blastocystis from its free-living stramenopile ancestors to a radiation of host-associated organisms is poorly understood. To explore this, we cultured and sequenced eight strains representing the significant phylogenetic dive...
