摘要: We have optimized a set of 14 polymorphic microsatellite markers for the human malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax, all them consisting either tri- or tetranucleotide repeats. These markers, whose polymerase chain reaction amplification conditions are identical, were used to screen 25 isolates from malaria-endemic areas in Sri Lanka. The total number alleles per locus ranged between 6 and 13 (average, 7.8), expected heterozygosity 0.627 0.913 0.790). now being characterize population structure P. vivax other endemic areas.
