Measurably recombining malaria parasites

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Flavia Camponovo from the Health, Boston, MA, USA have published the Article: Measurably recombining malaria parasites, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors compare the genetic consequences of recombination versus mutation in the context of malaria genomic epidemiology, examine methodological gaps, and propose an approach towards a unifying inferential framework, something akin to phylodynamics in viral genomic epidemiology. Although the authors focus on Plasmodium, the concepts apply to a broader range of sexually recombining pathogens. The authors discuss how and when malaria parasites mutate measurably and recombine effectively on an epidemiologically relevant timescale. The . . .
