Global population genomics of two subspecies of <i>Cryptosporidium hominis</i> during 500 years of evolution

2021-09-09

Abstract excerpt

Cryptosporidiosis is a major global health problem and a primary cause of diarrhoea, particularly in young children in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The zoonotic Cryptosporidium parvum and anthroponotic C. hominis cause most human infections. Here, we present a comprehensive whole-genome study of C. hominis , comprising 114 isolates from 16 countries within five continents. We detect two lineages wi...
