Collection of 89 stool samples from Tibetan macaque in Mount E-mei in China
The first to report the detection of Entamoeba nuttalli from Tibetan macaques.
Polymorphisms of tRNA-STR loci existed among Chinese E. nuttalli isolates.
EM isolates were attributed to an independent branch from GY and LH isolates.
Analysis indicated an isolation-by-distance effect in Chinese E. nuttalli isolates.
