Effective population size estimates for P. falciparum and P. vivax populations on the north coast of Papua New Guinea.

SMM = Stepwise mutation model, IAM = Infinite Alleles Model. The mutation rate of 1.59 X 10−4 for P. falciparum was used for both species. Numbers in brackets are lower and upper estimates derived from using the 95% confidence upper and lower mutation rates for P. falciparum (Lower = 6.98 X 10−5, Upper = 3.7 X 10−4) [11].Effective population size estimates for P. falciparum and P. vivax populations on the north coast of Papua New Guinea.
