Investigation of human genes under pathogen-driven selection as Plasmodium sp. has pinpointed genetic variants that participate in the adaptation to the environment and/or are related to severities of human diseases. The current study examined an example of an evolutionary trade-off in which genetic vari...
While gene flow between distantly related populations is increasingly recognized as a potentially important source of adaptive genetic variation for humans, fully characterized examples are rare. In addition, the role that natural selection for resistance to vivax malaria may have played in the extreme d...
As doenças infecciosas constituem um dos principais problemas de saúde no continente
Africano, especialmente na África Subsariana, da qual Moçambique faz parte. A participação
de fatores genéticos na susceptibilidade dos humanos às doenças infecciosas é um fato. A
identificação de marcadores ...
