High recombination rates and hotspots in a Plasmodium falciparum genetic cross
BACKGROUND: The human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum survives pressures from the host immune system and antimalarial drugs by modifying its genome. Genetic recombination and nucleotide substitution are the two major mechanisms that the parasite employs to generate genome diversity. A better...
