Phylogenetic Inferences Based on Distinct Molecular Markers Confirm a Novel <i>Babesia</i> Species (<i>Babesia goianiaensis</i> nov. sp.) in Capybaras (<i>Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris</i>) and Associated Ticks

Phylogenetic Inferences Based on Distinct Molecular Markers Confirm a Novel <i>Babesia</i> Species (<i>Babesia goianiaensis</i> nov. sp.) in Capybaras (<i>Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris</i>) and Associated Ticks

Piroplasmids (order Piroplasmida) are a diverse group of tick-borne protozoa that may cause disease in animals and occasionally in humans. Novel Piroplasmida clades and species have been found in wild animals from Brazil based on the phylogenetic assessment of near-complete 18S rRNA, mitochondrial a...
