Evolutionary history of human Plasmodium vivax revealed by genome-wide analyses of related ape parasites
Wild-living African apes are endemically infected with parasites that are closely related to human Plasmodium vivax, a leading cause of malaria outside Africa. This finding suggests that the origin of P. vivax was in Africa, even though the parasite is now rare in humans there. To elucidate the emer...
