Trypanosoma brucei s.l: evolution, linkage and the clonality debate.

Parasitology - 1 May 1996

Stevens J R, Tibayrenc M

Abstract excerpt

The Index of Association (IA) has been proposed by Maynard Smith et al. (1993) as a general method for characterizing the population structures of microorganisms as either: clonal, epidemic, cryptic species or panmictic. With reference to the current debate surrounding the mode of reproduction in parasitic protozoa, this study explores (i) the suitability and limitations of the IA for characterizing populations...
