The paper genotypes PIEZO1 STR alleles in malaria cases and controls, finding a modest protective effect of E756del against malaria.

The paper investigates the association between host sickle cell haemoglobin and parasite genetic variation in malaria severity, finding that parasite alleles linked to HbS show strong linkage disequilibrium and frequency covariation with HbS.

This study identifies five genome-wide associations with severe malaria risk in 17,000 individuals from Africa, Asia, and Oceania, including a new variant linked to cerebral malaria.

The paper identifies a structural variant in GYPA and GYPB genes associated with reduced risk of severe malaria in sub-Saharan African populations.

This study analyzes admixture patterns in 48 African populations, revealing recent gene flow and shared ancestry due to historical migrations and agricultural expansions.
