Clonal reproduction shapes evolution in the lizard malaria parasite Plasmodium floridense.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2015

Falk Bryan G, Glor Richard E, Perkins Susan L

Abstract excerpt

The preponderant clonal evolution hypothesis (PCE) predicts that frequent clonal reproduction (sex between two clones) in many pathogens capable of sexual recombination results in strong linkage disequilibrium and the presence of discrete genetic subdivisions characterized by occasional gene flow. We expand on the PCE and predict that higher rates of clonal reproduction will result in: (1) morphologically cryptic...
