Evolution of Host Specificity by Malaria Parasites through Altered Mechanisms Controlling Genome Maintenance
The protozoan parasites that cause malaria infect a wide variety of vertebrate hosts, including birds, reptiles, and mammals, and the evolutionary pressures inherent to the host-parasite relationship have profoundly shaped the genomes of both host and parasite. Here, we report that these selective p...
