Genomic epidemiology of <i>Plasmodium knowlesi</i> reveals putative genetic drivers of adaptation in Malaysia
2024-04-15
Abstract excerpt
Sabah, Malaysia, has amongst the highest burden of human Plasmodium knowlesi infection in the country, associated with increasing encroachment on the parasite’s macaque host habitat. However, the genomic make-up of P. knowlesi in Sabah was previously poorly understood. To inform on local patterns of transmission and putative adaptive drivers, we conduct population-level genetic analyses of P. knowlesi human inf...
