In the blood--the remarkable ancestry of Plasmodium falciparum.

Trends in parasitology - 1 Aug 2002

Conway David J, Baum Jake

Abstract excerpt

Discussions concerning the origin and spread of malaria are popular. Colourful and diverse players, such as early hominids, agriculturalists, conquistadors and various animals, tend to feature prominently in imagined horrible histories. So, what of recent studies on genomic diversity of Plasmodium falciparum that claim to give more precision to the subject? Have they restricted the freeform speculation or just...
