Genetic studies of Plasmodium falciparum laboratory crosses and field isolates have produced valuable insights into determinants of drug responses, antigenic variation, disease virulence, cellular development and population structures of these virulent human malaria parasites. Full-genome sequences and high-resolution haplotype maps of SNPs and microsatellites are now available for all 14 parasite chromosomes. Rapidly increasing genetic and genomic information on Plasmodium parasites, mosquitoes and humans will combine as a rich resource for new advances in our understanding of malaria, its transmission and its manifestations of disease.
