Tail Wags the Dog? Functional Gene Classes Driving Genome-Wide GC Content in Plasmodium spp.

Plasmodium parasites are valuable models to understand how nucleotide composition affects mutation, diversification, and adaptation. No other observed eukaryotes have undergone such large changes in genomic Guanine–Cytosine (GC) content as seen in the genus Plasmodium (∼30% within 35–40 Myr). Althou...
