“…gondii shows high genetic variabilities. Besides the well-known archetypal genotypes I, II and III, a series of studies showed that there are new variant and non-clonal genotypes, which may show different virulence phenotypes (Grigg et al, 2001;Deiró et al, 2021). In Europe, type II is most prevalent not only in animals but also in humans (Fernández-Escobar et al, 2022a); however, non-clonal genotypes might occur, which may be associated with severe clinical outcome (Boothroyd and Grigg, 2002;Elbez-Rubinstein et al, 2009;Pomares et al, 2011).…”
