Toxoplasma gondii genotypes in Europe - a lot we know - a lot we do not know
Original language description
It is well established that Toxoplasma gondii has a largely clonal population structure in Europe, which is dominated by clonal types II and III. There is evidence that representatives of these European T. gondii clonal lineages are, to a limited extent, genetically diverse. However, it remains unclear what caused this genetic variability and its possible epidemiological implications. A number of previous reports indicated a putative involvement of unusual genotypes in human cases of ocular and cerebral toxoplasmosis in particular European countries. However, detailed knowledge on the existence of non-clonal T. gondii genotypes in Europe is lacking and many European geographical regions and life-cycle compartments (e.g. wildlife, environment) are understudied. Further studies, using harmonised genotyping tools with a high resolution are necessary.
