Evolutionary Genomics of Metchnikovella incurvata (Metchnikovellidae): An Early Branching Microsporidium
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Genome Biology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evy205
Abstract: Abstract Metchnikovellids are highly specialized hyperparasites, which infect and reproduce inside gregarines (Apicomplexa) inhabiting marine invertebrates. Their phylogenetic affiliation was under constant discussion until recently, when analysis of the first near-complete metchnikovellid genome, that of… read more here.
