A high-throughput method for quantifying alleles and haplotypes of the malaria vaccine candidate <it>Plasmodium falciparum </it>merozoite surface protein-1 19 kDa

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Malaria vaccine efficacy may be compromised if the frequency of non-target alleles increases following vaccination with a genetically polymorphic target. Methods are needed to monitor genetic diversity in polymorphic vaccine antigens...
