Plasmodium Reproduction, Cell Size, and Transcription: How to Cope With Increasing DNA Content?
Plasmodium, the unicellular parasite that causes malaria, evolved a highly unusual mode of reproduction. During its complex life cycle, invasive or transmissive stages alternate with proliferating stages, where a single parasite can produce tens of thousands of progeny. In the clinically relevant bl...
