The molecular evolution of trypanosomes.

J R Stevens1, W Gibson.   

Abstract

The absence of a fossil record has meant that the evolution of protozoa has remained largely a matter for speculation. Recent advances in molecular biology and phylogenetic analysis, however, are allowing the 'history written in the genes' to be interpreted. Here, Jamie Stevens and Wendy Gibson review progress in reconstruction of trypanosome phylogeny based on molecular data from rRNA and protein-coding genes.
