Changes in malaria parasite drug resistance in an endemic population over a 25-year period with resulting genomic evidence of selection.
BACKGROUND: Analysis of genome-wide polymorphism in many organisms has potential to identify genes under recent selection. However, data on historical allele frequency changes are rarely available for direct confirmation. METHODS: We genotyped single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 4 Plasmodium...
