Abstract excerpt

Understanding the population structure of Plasmodium parasites is essential for malaria intervention. A survey of parasites in vectors and host infections was conducted in an area of intense mortality due to malaria in a captive penguin (Spheniscus demersus) colony, using a novel method for identification of Plasmodium species by amplification of ribosomal sequences in DNA or RNA. Three phylogenetically distinct...
