Multilocus microsatellite typing (MLMT) reveals high genetic diversity of <i>Leishmania infantum</i> strains causing tegumentary leishmaniasis in northern Italy

2026-02-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Tegumentary leishmaniasis (TL) caused by Leishmania infantum has re-emerged in northern Italy, raising questions about the genetic diversity and population structure of circulating parasites and their potential role in shaping different clinical outcomes. <h4>Methodology/Principal findings</h4> Multilocus microsatellite typing (MLMT) based on 15 polymorphic loci was applied to 44 L. infant...
