Multilocus PCR-RFLP profiling in Trypanosoma cruzi I highlights an intraspecific genetic variation pattern

Chagas disease represents a serious problem in public health. This zoonotic pathology is caused by the kinetoplastid Trypanosoma cruzi which displays a high genetic diversity falling into six Discrete Typing Units (TcI–TcVI). In Colombia, the prevalent DTU is TcI with findings of TcII, TcIII and TcI...
