The genome assembly of Sphaerospora molnari provides novel insights into the rapid evolution and diversification of unique lineage-specific gene groups in myxozoan parasites

Anush Kosakyan, Monika M Wiśniewska, Enrique Riera-Ferrer…·Astrid S. Holzer

This paper presents a near chromosome-scale genome assembly of Sphaerospora molnari, revealing lineage-specific gene groups and genomic traits like MULE expansion and domestication that drive rapid evolution in myxozoan parasites.
