Exploration of the malaria parasite lifecycle stages and strains circulating in natural infections at single-cell resolution
… There are also parasites of different stages circulating in natural infections, but there is very limited understanding of these stages, especially gametocytes, which are overwhelmingly underrepresented in a typical infection. The recent development of single-cell RNA sequencing …
