Extreme geographical fixation of variation in the Plasmodium falciparum gamete surface protein gene Pfs48 /45 compared with microsatellite loci

Extreme geographical fixation of variation in the Plasmodium falciparum gamete surface protein gene Pfs48 /45 compared with microsatellite loci

Comparing patterns of genetic variation at multiple loci in the genome of a species can potentially identify loci which are under selection. The large number of polymorphic microsatellites in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum are available markers to screen for selectively important loci....
