High-resolution genotyping and mapping of recombination and gene conversion in the protozoan Theileria parva using whole genome sequencing

Background Theileria parva is a tick-borne protozoan parasite, which causes East Coast Fever, a disease of cattle in sub-Saharan Africa. Like Plasmodium falciparum, the parasite undergoes a transient diploid life-cycle stage in the gut of the arthropod vector, which involves an obligate sexual cycle...
