Evidence of hybridization, mitochondrial introgression and biparental inheritance of the kDNA minicircles in <i>Trypanosoma cruzi I</i>

2019-09-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Genetic Exchange in Trypanosoma cruzi is controversial not only in relation to its frequency but also in relation to its mechanism. A mechanism of parasexuality has been proposed based on laboratory hybrids, but population genomics strongly suggests meiosis. In addition, mitochondrial introgression has been reported several times in natural isolates although its mechanism is not clear. Moreov...
