Comparative genomics of the sexually transmitted parasite <i>Trichomonas vaginalis</i> reveals relaxed and convergent evolution and genes involved in spillover from birds to humans

2024-12-25

Abstract excerpt

Trichomonas vaginalis is the causative agent of the venereal disease trichomoniasis which infects men and women globally and is associated with serious outcomes during pregnancy and cancers of the human reproductive tract. Trichomonads parasitize a range of hosts in addition to humans including birds, livestock, and domesticated animals. Recent genetic analysis of trichomonads recovered from columbid birds has pro...
