Abstract
⺠A native human Cryptosporidium meleagridis case with suspected zoonotic transmission was investigated. ⺠The ssrRNA and HSP70 genes were used to compare human and animal isolates. ⺠The HSP70 gene from cases of human travellers were also examined. ⺠Zoonotic transmission was shown by identical sequences at the ssrRNA and HSP70 loci. ⺠Novel HSP70 genotypes were identified in the case and two travellers.
