Structure of the dominant haplotype derived from fragment analysis of 13 microsatellite loci spanning 179.5 kb of chromosome 6 selective signature in P. falciparum. The first row shows the physical positions (bp) of each locus and the arbitrary names of the loci are presented in each column of the second row. The years of sampling for each population is shown in merged rows of the first column while the following columns are microsatellite loci positions on the chromosome. For each population, the rows present the haplotype of a sample across the 13 loci. The numbers in each cell is the allele (fragment size in bp determined from capillary electrophoresis) for a sample at each locus. Alleles of the major haplotype are shaded in blue
