Gametocyte sex ratios as indirect measures of outcrossing rates in malaria.

Parasitology - 1 Jun 1992

Read A F, Narara A, Nee S, Keymer A E, Day K P

Abstract excerpt

The frequency of recombination between unlike genotypes is central to understanding the generation of genetic diversity in natural populations of malaria. Here we suggest a way of investigating the problem which could complement conventional biochemical approaches to the population genetics of malaria. Sex allocation theory is one of the most successful areas of evolutionary biology. A well-supported prediction...
