Genetic mapping of fitness determinants across the malaria parasite <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> life cycle

2019-03-06

Abstract excerpt

Malaria is transmitted through female Anopheline mosquitoes where gamete fusion and meiosis occurs, and humans where parasites proliferate asexually. We describe a powerful approach to identify the genetic determinants of parasite fitness across both invertebrate and vertebrate life-cycle stages in human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum using bulk segregant analysis (BSA). We combined experimental genetic c...
