Novel genetic polymorphisms associated with severe malaria and under selective pressure in North-eastern Tanzania
Significant selection pressure has been exerted on the genomes of human populations exposed to Plasmodium falciparum infection, resulting in the acquisition of mechanisms of resistance against severe malarial disease. Many host genetic factors, including sickle cell trait, have been associated with...
