Résumé

A review on the best understood mechanisms of phenotypic diversification by phase variation and antigenic variation, and their functions. Topics discussed include DNA inversion, gene conversion, phase variation by slipped-strand mispairing, phase variation by an epigenetic mechanism, influence of environmental conditions on phase variation, and phase variation in ecol. interactions.
