Lineage-informative microhaplotypes for spatio-temporal surveillance of Plasmodium vivax malaria parasites

Lineage-informative microhaplotypes for spatio-temporal surveillance of Plasmodium vivax malaria parasites#

This is the companion repository for the paper Lineage-informative microhaplotypes for spatio-temporal surveillance of Plasmodium vivax malaria parasites.

The main aim of this repository is to provide details on the methods used for the discovery, selection, and exploration/optimisation of candidate microhaplotype panels for P. vivax. In addition, it provides a customisable template framework that can be adapted to different needs based on requirements for different panel use cases such as number of panel markers, diversity criteria, geographical region, selection process, etc.
