Asynchronous nuclear cycles in multinucleated Plasmodium falciparum enable rapid proliferation

S. Klaus, P. Binder, J. Kim, M. Machado, C. Funaya, V. Schaaf, D. Klaschka, A. Kudulyte, M. Cyrklaff, V. Laketa, T. Hoefer, J. Guizetti, N. Becker, F. Frischknecht, U. S. Schwarz, M. Ganter

The paper shows that Plasmodium falciparum nuclei replicate DNA asynchronously, leading to heterogeneous progeny numbers and slower replication during overlapping events.
