Show abstract
We sequenced Leishmania donovani genomes in blood samples collected in emerging foci of Visceral Leishmaniasis, in West Nepal. We detected lineages which are very different from pre-elimination main parasite population: a new lineage and a rare one previously reported once in East Nepal. We highlight the need for genomic surveillance.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
