Mitochondrial DNAs provide insight into trypanosome phylogeny and molecular evolution

Abstract Background Trypanosomes are single-celled eukaryotic parasites characterised by the unique biology of their mitochondrial DNA. African livestock trypanosomes impose a major burden on agriculture across sub-Saharan Africa, but are poorly understood compared to those that cause sleeping sickn...
