Population structuring of multi-copy, antigen-encoding genes in Plasmodium falciparum
The coexistence of multiple independently circulating strains in pathogen populations that undergo sexual recombination is a central question of epidemiology with profound implications for control. An agent-based model is developed that extends earlier ‘strain theory’ by addressing the var gene fami...
