Sexual recombination punctuated by outbreaks and clonal expansions predicts Toxoplasma gondii population genetics.

International journal for parasitology - 1 Jul 2009

Grigg Michael E, Sundar Natarajan

Abstract excerpt

The cosmopolitan parasitic pathogen Toxoplasma gondii is capable of infecting essentially any warm-blooded vertebrate worldwide, including most birds and mammals, and establishes chronic infections in one-third of the globe's human population. The success of this highly prevalent zoonosis is largely the result of its ability to propagate both sexually and clonally. Frequent genetic exchanges via sexual...
