Global genome diversity of the Leishmania donovani complex

Global genome diversity of the Leishmania donovani complex

Protozoan parasites of the Leishmania donovani complex – L. donovani and L. infantum – cause the fatal disease visceral leishmaniasis. We present the first comprehensive genome-wide global study, with 151 cultured field isolates representing most of the geographical distribution. L. donovani isolate...
