Sex-specific genetic structure: new trends for dioecious parasites.

Trends in parasitology - 1 Apr 2003

Prugnolle Franck, Durand Patrick, Theron Andre, Chevillon Christine, de Meeus Thierry

Abstract excerpt

In dioecious parasite species, genetic structure can differ between sexes, as recently demonstrated for the digenetic trematode Schistosoma mansoni and the ectoparasitic tick Ixodes ricinus. This article presents some of the methods that allow detecting such a pattern in natural populations. The proximate and ultimate factors that potentially generate a sex-specific genetic structure are discussed, as are...
