Multilocus Sequence Typing Tool for Cyclospora cayetanensis

Multilocus Sequence Typing Tool for Cyclospora cayetanensis

Because the lack of typing tools for Cyclospora cayetanensis has hampered outbreak investigations, we sequenced its genome and developed a genotyping tool. We observed 2 to 10 geographically segregated sequence types at each of 5 selected loci. This new tool could be useful for case linkage and infe...
