Genetic diversity and natural selection of Plasmodium vivax reticulocyte invasion genes in Ecuador.

Malaria journal - 3 Aug 2023

Núñez Andrés, Ntumngia Francis B, Guerra Yasel, Adams John H, Sáenz Fabián E

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Knowledge of the diversity of invasion ligands in malaria parasites in endemic regions is essential to understand how natural selection influences genetic diversity of these ligands and their feasibility as possible targets for future vaccine development. In this study the diversity of four genes for merozoite invasion ligands was studied in Ecuadorian isolates of Plasmodium vivax. METHODS:...
