Inferring selection in the Anopheles gambiae species complex: an example from immune-related serine protease inhibitors
BACKGROUND: Mosquitoes of the Anopheles gambiae species complex are the primary vectors of human malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. Many host genes have been shown to affect Plasmodium development in the mosquito, and so are expected to engage in an evolutionary arms race with the pathogen. However, the...
