Toxoplasma gondii G662M Genome sequencing. Toxoplasma gondii G662M

New research on Toxoplasma gondii has revealed that there is more genetic variation than previously expected. The population structure is strongly subdivided by geographic region into 15 major lineages. The T. gondii strain G662M will be sequenced to study genome variability within haplogroup 13.

针对刚地弓形虫（Toxoplasma gondii）的最新研究揭示，其遗传变异程度远超此前预期。该虫的种群结构因地理区域呈现强烈分化，可划分为15个主要谱系（lineage）。本研究将对T. gondii菌株G662M进行测序，以探究第13单倍群（haplogroup）内的基因组变异特征。
