An evolutionary legacy of sex and clonal reproduction in the protistan oyster parasite Perkinsus marinus.

Infection, genetics and evolution : journal of molecular epidemiology and evolutionary genetics in infectious diseases - 1 Apr 2011

Thompson Peter C, Rosenthal Benjamin M, Hare Matthew P

Abstract excerpt

Perkinsus marinus, a protozoan parasite of the eastern oyster Crassostrea virginica, causes Dermo disease which limits fecundity and causes high mortality in host populations. The long-term efficacy of management strategies for suppressing this disease in both aquaculture and restoration settings depends on the potential rate of evolutionary response by P. marinus. Sexual reproduction has never been demonstrated...
