title: Genomes against parasites.
abstract: Whereas once it was only possible to generate reference genome sequences one at a time, it is now feasible to design genomic experiments to maximize functional comparisons and contrasts among many genomes. Investigating the diversity of a number of related parasite genomes and their transcriptomes in multiple contexts increasingly shows us ways to intervene in the ecological and evolutionary strategies of pathogens.
