Exceptionally long-range haplotypes in Plasmodium falciparum chromosome 6 maintained in an endemic African population
BACKGROUND: Previous genome-wide analyses of single nucleotide variation in Plasmodium falciparum identified evidence of an extended haplotype region on chromosome 6 in West Africa, suggesting recent positive selection. Such a pattern is not seen in samples from East Africa or South East Asia, so it...
