Environmental Correlation Analysis for Genes Associated with Protection against Malaria

Environmental Correlation Analysis for Genes Associated with Protection against Malaria

Genome-wide searches for loci involved in human resistance to malaria are currently being conducted on a large scale in Africa using case-control studies. Here, we explore the utility of an alternative approach—“environmental correlation analysis, ECA,” which tests for clines in allele frequencies a...
