Malaria parasite genetics: doing something useful.

Richard L Culleton1, Hussein M Abkallo2.   

Abstract

Genetics has informed almost every aspect of the study of malaria parasites, and remains a key component of much of the research that aims to reduce the burden of the disease they cause. We describe the history of genetic studies of malaria parasites and give an overview of the utility of the discipline to malariology.
