Implementing landscape genetics in molecular epidemiology to determine drivers of vector-borne disease: A malaria case study
2022-09-09
Abstract excerpt
This study employs landscape genetics to investigate the environmental drivers of a deadly vector-borne disease, malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum, in a more spatially comprehensive manner than any previous work. With 1,804 samples from 44 sites collected in western Kenya in 2012 and 2013, we performed resistance surface analysis to show that Lake Victoria acts as a barrier to transmission between areas nort...
