A new, comprehensive map of all the genes essential for blood infections in Plasmodium knowlesi (P. knowlesi), a parasite that causes malaria in humans, has been generated. The map contains the most ...

Population genomics of Plasmodium species harnesses high-throughput sequencing to investigate the genetic diversity, evolutionary trajectories and transmission networks of malaria parasites at a ...

Plasmodium parasites undergo a complex life cycle spanning human and mosquito hosts, requiring tightly coordinated changes in gene expression at each developmental stage. Transcriptional control is ...

The map contains the most complete classification of essential genes in any Plasmodium species and can be used to identify druggable parasite targets and mechanisms of drug resistance that can inform ...

In 1562, Cardinal Giovanni de Medici, a scion of the dynastic family that dominated politics and banking in Tuscany during the Renaissance, died of ...
