Malarial parasite diversity in chimpanzees: the value of comparative approaches to ascertain the evolution of Plasmodium falciparum antigens.

Malaria journal - 17 Sept 2013

Pacheco M Andreína, Cranfield Michael, Cameron Kenneth, Escalante Ananias A

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Plasmodium falciparum shares its most recent common ancestor with parasites found in African apes; these species constitute the so-called Laverania clade. In this investigation, the evolutionary history of Plasmodium lineages found in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) was explored. METHODS: Here, the remainders of 74 blood samples collected as part of the chimpanzees' routine health examinations were...
