Plasmodium vivax is the geographically most widespread human malaria parasite. To
analyze patterns of microsatellite diversity and population structure across countries of …

Genetic diversity and population structure of Plasmodium vivax parasites can predict the
origin and spread of novel variants within a population enabling population specific malaria …

Background Malaria remains endemic in several countries of South America with low to
moderate transmission intensity. Regional human migration through underserved endemic …

The population structure of Plasmodium vivax remains elusive. The markers of choice for
large-scale population genetic studies of eukaryotes, short tandem repeats known as …

More than 200 million malaria clinical cases are reported each year due to Plasmodium
vivax, the most widespread Plasmodium species in the world. This species has been …

To examine how community-level genetic diversity of the malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax
varies across time and space, we investigated the dynamics of parasite polymorphisms …

Understanding the genetic structure of malaria parasites is essential to predict how fast
some phenotypes of interest originate and spread in populations. In the present study, we …

Populations of Plasmodium falciparum show striking differences in linkage disequilibrium,
population differentiation and diversity, but only fragmentary data exists on the genetic …

Background Characterizing the parasite dynamics and population structure provides useful
information to understand the dynamic of transmission and to better target control …

Despite efforts made over decades by the Peruvian government to eliminate malaria,
Plasmodium vivax remains a challenge for public health decision-makers in the country. The …
