Population genetic structure of Plasmodium falciparum across a region of diverse endemicity in West Africa

Malaria Journal

Table 4 Matrix of genetic differentiation ( F _ST values below diagonal) and geographical distances (in Km above diagonal) in pairwise comparisons of eight sampled P. falciparum populations

Nzr = N’Zerekore; Bok = Boke; For = Forecariah; Bas = Basse; Cai = Caio; Far = Farafenni; Gba = Greater Banjul area; Ric = Richard Toll.
Pairwise F_ST values are the mean for all 10 microsatellite loci, and values significantly above zero (p < 0.01) are underlined. Sample sizes for each location are given in Methods and Table 1.
