Divergent pattern of genomic variation in Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax
2016-11-25
Abstract excerpt
The two main species causing malaria in humans, Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax, differ significantly from each other in their evolutionary response to common drugs, but the reasons for this are not clear. Here we utilized the recently available large-scale genome sequencing data from these parasites and compared the pattern of single nucleotide polymorphisms, which may be related to these differences. We fou...
