Performance of SNP barcodes to determine genetic diversity and population structure of Plasmodium falciparum in Africa

Panels of informative biallelic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been proposed to be an economical method to fast-track the population genetic analysis of Plasmodium falciparum in malaria-endemic areas. Whilst used successfully in low-transmission areas where infections are monoclonal and...
