The Genome of Cryptosporidium tyzzeri Is Very Similar to the Genomes of C. parvum and C. hominis
(A–C) Synteny maps comparing the assembled genomic contigs of C. tyzzeri UGA55 and C. parvum UKP6 (A), C. hominis 30976 (B), and C. muris RN66 (C). Each line connects a genomic segment with a local alignment e-value cut-off of 1e−20. This correlates to >90% overall nucleotide identity.
(D) Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) density map comparing C. tyzzeri with C. parvum (red) and hominis (blue) with a 1 kb rolling window.
