Mode and Tempo of Microsatellite Length Change in a Malaria Parasite Mutation Accumulation Experiment

Malaria parasites have small extremely AT-rich genomes: microsatellite repeats (1–9 bp) comprise 11% of the genome and genetic variation in natural populations is dominated by repeat changes in microsatellites rather than point mutations. This experiment was designed to quantify microsatellite mutat...
