Genetic evidence for the importance of interrupted feeding by mosquitoes in the transmission of malaria.

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene - 1 Jan 2000

Conway D J, McBride J S

Abstract excerpt

Plasmodium falciparum isolates were obtained from 17 pairs of Gambian children, each pair living in the same house and presenting with malaria at the same time. Frequencies of allelic serotypes of 3 polymorphic blood stage proteins (MSP1, MSP2, and Exp-1) were previously determined from a large number of isolates from patients in the local area, and the probability of a random pair of isolates containing an...
