Table 4. Multilocus linkage disequilibrium in the two P. vivax populations.
Population | Single Clones | Unique Haplotypes Only | ||
No. | IAS | No. | IAS | |
1994–1998 | 33 | 0.584*** | 13 | 0.408*** |
1999–2003 | 36 | 0.315*** | 17 | 0.231*** |
2004–2008 | 18 | 0.140*** | 18 | 0.153*** |
Single clones show all haplotypes in single-clone infections. Unique haplotypes show haplotypes excluding duplicates of any multiply represented infection. No. indicates the number of isolates for each measure.
***: P<0.001.
