Genetic determination and linkage mapping of Plasmodium falciparum malaria related traits in Senegal.

Genetic determination and linkage mapping of Plasmodium falciparum malaria related traits in Senegal.

Plasmodium falciparum malaria episodes may vary considerably in their severity and clinical manifestations. There is good evidence that host genetic factors contribute to this variability. To date, most genetic studies aiming at the identification of these genes have used a case/control study design...
