Abstract excerpt
Haemosporidian parasites of birds and mammals reproduce asexually inside nucleated and nonnucleated host erythrocytes, respectively. Because of these different parasite environments and because bird parasites are paraphyletic, we evaluated whether patterns of parasite molecular evolution differ b...
