Inverse associations of human leukocyte antigen and malaria parasite types in two West African populations.
Differences in allelic associations between populations continue to cause difficulties in the mapping and identification of susceptibility genes for complex polygenic diseases. Although well recognized, the basis of such interpopulation differences is poorly understood. We present an example of an i...
