Metabarcoding using nanopore long‐read sequencing for the unbiased characterization of apicomplexan haemoparasites

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract Apicomplexan haemoparasites generate significant morbidity and mortality in humans and other animals, particularly in many low‐to‐middle income countries. Malaria caused by Plasmodium remains responsible for some of the highest numbers of annual deaths of any human pathogen, whilst piroplasmids, such as Babesia and Theileria can have immense ...
