Shared parasite genotypes between Richard Toll and Thiès. Pairwise comparisons of Plasmodium falciparum genotype data from Richard Toll (n = 426 in upper panel) and Thiès (n = 1516 in lower panel) reveal that 88 of 426 (21%) of Richard Toll parasites are highly related to one of 343 Thiès parasites and comprise 52 barcode groups represented by coloured circles connected by lines to represent individual parasite genotypes that are shared across populations. The coloured circles are area-scaled based upon the number of infections per genotype. Individual (unique) Richard Toll parasites are shown in grey at the top and Thiès parasites in blue at the bottom. The number of samples that are unique (240 Richard Toll and 869 Thiès) represent barcodes that are not highly related to any other parasite. There are 35 barcode groups comprising highly-related parasites from Richard Toll only (n = 98 parasites) and 75 barcode groups that contain highly related parasites from Thiès only (n = 869). These are represented as individual grey or blue circles, respectively
