Within recent years, with the advent of genetic characterization, molecular markers have been developed to study the genetic diversity of trypanosomes (Tait et al., 2011). These methods, such as determination of microsatellite markers for determination of allelic variations, demonstrated great diversity of the Trypanosoma brucei group in humans due to frequent genetic exchange (Capewell et al., 2013a; Duffy et al., 2014).
