Genomic insights into <i>Plasmodium vivax</i> population structure and diversity in central Africa

2022-12-19

Abstract excerpt

Plasmodium vivax malaria has not traditionally been a major concern in central Africa given the high prevalence of the human Duffy-negative phenotype that is believed to prevent infection. Increasing reports of asymptomatic and symptomatic infections in Duffy-negative individuals throughout Africa raise the possibility that P. vivax is evolving to evade host resistance, but there are few parasite samples with gen...
