Plasmodium vivax populations are more genetically diverse and less structured than sympatric Plasmodium falciparum populations

The human malaria parasite, Plasmodium vivax, is proving more difficult to control and eliminate than Plasmodium falciparum in areas of co-transmission. Comparisons of the genetic structure of sympatric parasite populations may provide insight into the mechanisms underlying the resilience of P. viva...
