In Portugal, the 2023 HIV incidence rate was 8.2 per 100,000 inhabitants, with 876 new infections, 41.7% in MSM. We aim to characterize HIV-1 transmission clusters (TC) and transmitted drug resistance (TDR) and its sociodemographic, behavioral, clinical, and viral genomic determina...

P. spumarius and P. tesselatus are considered sister species, differentiated at the male genitalia level but not at karyological, mitochondrial DNA and some nuclear genes levels (Maryanska-Nadachowska et al., 2012; Rodrigues et al., 2014).
