pneumocystis carinii

Preferred Label : pneumocystis carinii;

MeSH definition : The prototype species of PNEUMOCYSTIS infecting the laboratory rat, Rattus norvegicus (RATS). It was formerly called Pneumocystis carinii f. sp. carinii. Other species of Pneumocystis can also infect rats.; The prototype species of PNEUMOCYSTIS infecting the laboratory rat. It was formerly called Pneumocystis carinii f. sp. carinii. Strains that infect humans and cause PNEUMOCYSTIS PNEUMONIA were originally classified as Pneumocystis jirovecii or Pneumocystis carinii f. sp. hominis.;
