Genome comparison of human and non-human malaria parasites reveals species subset-specific genes potentially linked to human disease.
Genes underlying important phenotypic differences between Plasmodium species, the causative agents of malaria, are frequently found in only a subset of species and cluster at dynamically evolving subtelomeric regions of chromosomes. We hypothesized that chromosome-internal regions of Plasmodium geno...
