Comparison of Plasmodium falciparum allelic frequency distribution in different endemic settings by high-resolution genotyping
Malaria Journal, 11/02/09

Schoepflin S et al. – The results of the present study confirmed previous reports of a higher mean MOI for both marker genes and increased genetic diversity in areas of higher endemicity as estimated by the total number of distinct alleles for msp2. For msp1 a minor increase in diversity was observed. Measures of between population variance in allele frequencies indicated little genetic differentiation for both marker genes between the two populations from different endemic settings.
