Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Enterocytozoon bieneusi , a microsporidian species, is a zoonotic pathogen found in both humans and animals. Here, we determined the prevalence, explored the different genotypes of E. bieneusi in wild rhesus macaques ( Macaca mulatta ) (Hainan Island of China), and assessed their zoonotic potential.
