| Résumé: | Although Giardia has a long history, it is only recently that the clinical impact of Giardia
in children has been recognized. Similarly, the emergence of Giardiaas a frequent parasite of companion animals, livestock and wildlife raises questions about the clinical and
zoonotic significance of such infections. Transmission patterns have already been described
but the frequency of interaction between cycles of transmission is only just beginning to
be addressed in molecular epidemiological studies. The application of molecular tools has
provided information which sets the scene for revising the taxonomy of Giardia. With the
completion of the Giardia genome sequencing project, it is hoped that it will soon be
possible to compare genome and phenome and provide information of practical value
for the control of Giardia, as well as increasing our understanding of the evolution and
phylogenetic relationships of Giardia. |
