Abstract excerpt

Genetic epidemiology is a new tool for the study of malaria, with interesting incidence in the comprehension of host/parasite interrelations. The existence of a co-dominant major gene, with a mendelian transmission, controlling the levels of parasitemia has been found out. This allele has a frequency of 24% which means that about 6% of the population is predisposed to high parasitemias. These studies show the...
