<i>d</i>_N<i>/d</i>_S ratio and McDonald-Kreitman test of neutrality for the <i>pfserca</i> gene.

Legend P-value1: two-tailed Z-test based on 1000 bootstraps with an alternative hypothesis of dN≠dS. Syn: synonymous. Nsyn: non-synonymous. NI: neutrality index. P-value2: P-value of Fisher's Exact test. ∞: infinite (no synonymous polymorphisms). n.a.: not applicable (no intraspecific synonymous polymorphisms). n.c.: not computed (monomorphic sample). The extent of pfserca gene sequence analysed here correspond to nucleotide coordinates 87-2862 of the PFA0310c pfserca sequence of the reference clone 3D7 (Plasmodium genome database PlasmoDB; http://www.plasmodb.org/plasmo/).
