Modulation of Aneuploidy in <italic toggle="yes">Leishmania donovani</italic> during Adaptation to Different <italic toggle="yes">In Vitro</italic> and <italic toggle="yes">In Vivo</italic> Environments and Its Impact on Gene Expression
ABSTRACT Aneuploidy is usually deleterious in multicellular organisms but appears to be tolerated and potentially beneficial in unicellular organisms, including pathogens. Leishmania, a major protozoan parasite, is emerging as a new model for aneuploidy, since in vitro-cultivated strains are highly...
