Direct genome sequencing of <i>Leishmania tropica</i> in tissues of Moroccan patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis reveals micro-focal transmission underlain by clonal and sexual reproduction modes
2025-04-17
Abstract excerpt
Leishmania tropica is causing cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) from North Africa to India and in Ethiopia and is reported to be transmitted from humans to humans through sand fly bites. While this species is characterized by a high genetic diversity all over the area of endemicity, there is very little information on diversity at micro-epidemiological scale. Here, we zoomed on an epidemic Moroccan focus of CL - restri...
