A Plasmodium falciparum PX1 haplotype is associated with reduced susceptibility to artemisinin and lumefantrine

This study identifies a PX1 haplotype in Plasmodium falciparum associated with reduced susceptibility to artemisinin and lumefantrine, providing a marker for drug resistance surveillance.

Scalable long-read Nanopore HPV16 Amplicon-based Whole-Genome Sequencing

This paper develops a scalable long-read sequencing method for HPV16 genome analysis, showing high accuracy and capturing full genetic diversity across multiple lineages.

Geographical variation drives adaptive equilibrium of the P. falciparum sickle-associated mutations

The paper investigates how geographical variation influences the adaptive evolution of Plasmodium falciparum mutations that counteract sickle cell trait protection.

A novel locus associated with decreased susceptibility of Plasmodium falciparum to lumefantrine and dihydroartemisinin has emerged and spread in Uganda

Highly multiplex molecular inversion probe panel in Plasmodium falciparum targeting common SNPs approximates whole genome sequencing assessments for selection and relatedness

The paper develops a targeted sequencing panel for Plasmodium falciparum that approximates whole genome sequencing for population genetics analyses.

Population genomics of Plasmodium ovale species in sub-Saharan Africa

This study performs population genomic analysis of Plasmodium ovale species in sub-Saharan Africa, finding differences in nucleotide diversity and signatures of selection between the two species.
