3. Genetic structure and dynamics of Plasmodium falciparum infections in the Kilombero region of Tanzania

1 Feb 1999

Abstract excerpt

Plasmodium falciparum parasites exist as genetically distinct haploid clones in infected people. In the Kilombero valley in south-east Tanzania, at least 85% of the inhabitants of Michenga village harbour more than one clone. Using 2 highly polymorphic unlinked markers, it has been estimated that each infected person harbours between one and 6 P. falciparum clones at any one time, with a mean of 3.5 clones. When...
