Abstract
Background:Comparativegenomeanalysesofparasitesallowlargescaleinvestigationofselectivepressuresshapingtheir
evolution. An acute limitation to such analysis of Plasmodium falciparum is that there is only very partial low-coverage
genome sequence of the most closely related species, the chimpanzee parasite P. reichenowi. However, if orthologous
genes have been under similar selective pressures throughout the Plasmodium genus then positive selection on the P.
falciparumlineagemightbepredictedtosomeextentbyanalysisofotherlineages.
