Whole Mitochondrial Genome Sequence of an Indian Plasmodium falciparum Field Isolate
Mitochondrial genome sequence of malaria parasites has served as a potential marker for inferring evolutionary history of the Plasmodium genus. In Plasmodium falciparum, the mitochondrial genome sequences from around the globe have provided important evolutionary understanding, but no Indian sequenc...
