Characterization of within-host Plasmodium falciparum diversity using next-generation sequence data.

Characterization of within-host Plasmodium falciparum diversity using next-generation sequence data.

Our understanding of the composition of multi-clonal malarial infections and the epidemiological factors which shape their diversity remain poorly understood. Traditionally within-host diversity has been defined in terms of the multiplicity of infection (MOI) derived by PCR-based genotyping. Massive...
