Population expansion and gene flow in Giardia duodenalis as revealed by triosephosphate isomerase gene
Abstract Background Giardia duodenalis is a protozoan parasite that can cause significant diarrhoeal diseases. Knowledge of population genetics is a prerequisite for ascertaining the invasion patterns of this parasite. In order to infer evolutionary patterns that could not be uncovered based on the...
