      Záhonová, Kristína; Low, Ross S.; Warren, Christopher J.; Cantoni, Diego; Herman, Emily K.; Yiangou, Lyto; Ribeiro, Cláudia A.; Phanprasert, Yasinee; Brown, Ian R.; Rueckert, Sonja; Baker, Nicola L.; Tachezy, Jan; Betts, Emma L.; Gentekaki, Eleni; van der Giezen, Mark; Clark, C. Graham; Jackson, Andrew P.; Dacks, Joel B.; Tsaousis, Anastasios D. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Blastocystis is the most prevalent microbial eukaryote in the human and animal gut, yet its role as commensal or parasite is still under debate. Blastocystis has clearly undergone evolutionary adaptation to the gut environment ...
    • Further insight into the genetic diversity of Entamoeba coli and Entamoeba hartmanni 

      Stensvold, Christen Rune; Ascuña-Durand, Kasandra; Chihi, Amal; Belkessa, Salem; Kurt, Özgür; El-Badry, Ayman; van der Giezen, Mark; Clark, C. Graham (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Despite the species' wide distribution, studies of the genetic diversity within Entamoeba coli and Entamoeba hartmanni remain limited. In the present study, we provide further insight into the genetic diversity of both ...
