Pre-empting Pandora's Box: Blastocystis Subtypes Revisited.

Christen Rune Stensvold1, C Graham Clark2.   

Abstract

Blastocystis is a genetically diverse intestinal protist colonizing both human and non-human hosts. By 2013, 17 subtypes had been acknowledged. Since then, nine more subtypes have been proposed. We argue that several recently proposed subtypes are invalid. We also revisit recommendations regarding the requirements for annotating sequences as new subtypes.
