A different view on fine-scale population structure in Western African populations KU Leuven
Due to its long genetic evolutionary history, Africans exhibit more genetic variation than any other population in the world. Their genetic diversity further lends itself to subdivisions of Africans into groups of individuals with a genetic similarity of varying degrees of granularity. It remains challenging to detect fine-scale structure in a computationally efficient and meaningful way. In this paper, we present a proof-of-concept of a novel ...

Multilocus genotyping reveals high heterogeneity and strong local population structure of the Plasmodium vivax population in the Peruvian Amazon Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Peru is one of the Latin American countries with the highest malaria burden, mainly due to Plasmodium vivax infections. However, little is known about P. vivax transmission dynamics in the Peruvian Amazon, where most malaria cases occur. The genetic diversity and population structure of P. vivax isolates collected in different communities around Iquitos city, the capital of the Peruvian Amazon, was determined. METHODS: ...

Community structure, population structure and topographical specialisation of Gyrodactylus (Monogenea) ectoparasites living on sympatric stickleback species KU Leuven
In order to disentangle the contribution of host and parasite biology to host specificity, we compared the structure and population dynamics of the Gyrodactylus (von Nordmann, 1832) flatworm community living oil sympatric three-spined Gasterosteus aculeatus L. and nine-spined Pungitins pungitius (L.) stickleback. Between April 2002 and March 2003, a small lowland creek was sampled monthly. Species identity of about 75% of the worms per host was ...

Genetic diversity and population structure of Mycobacterium marinum: new insights into host and environmental specificities Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Mycobacterium marinum causes a systemic tuberculosis-like disease in fish, and skin infections in humans that might spread to deeper structures, resulting in tenosynovitis, arthritis and ostemomyelitis. However, little information is available concerning: (i) the intraspecific genetic diversity of M. marinum isolated from humans and animals; (ii) the M. marinum genotype circulation in the different ecosystems and (iii) the link between M. ...
