<i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> genetic diversity in coincident human and mosquito hosts
2022-05-05
Abstract excerpt
Population genetic diversity of P. falciparum antigenic loci is high despite large bottlenecks in population size during the parasite life cycle. The extent of this diversity in human blood-stage infections, following expansion from a small number of liver-stage schizonts, has been well described. However, little is known about parasite genetic diversity in the vector, where a similar bottleneck and expansion occ...
