Comparison of MultiLocus Sequence Typing (MLST) and Microsatellite Length Polymorphism (MLP) for Pneumocystis jirovecii genotyping

Comparison of MultiLocus Sequence Typing (MLST) and Microsatellite Length Polymorphism (MLP) for Pneumocystis jirovecii genotyping

Pneumocystis jirovecii is an atypical fungus responsible for severe respiratory infections, often reported as local outbreaks in immunocompromised patients. Epidemiology of this infection, and transmission risk emphasises the need for developing genotyping techniques. Currently, two methods have eme...
