25 genes with ≥10 SNPs showing highest values of Tajima's D index in a genome-wide analysis of sequences of 65 Gambian P. falciparum isolates.

N, number of aligned nucleotide positions analysed; % CDS, percentage of the complete gene coding sequence analysed; S, number of polymorphic sites analysed per gene; π, pairwise nucleotide diversity index; peak expression, as determined by previous microarray transcriptome analyses; dN/dS, Nei & Gojobori ratio of pairwise nucleotide diversity at nonsynonymous sites compared with synonymous sites. Results for all 2853 genes with 3 or more SNPs are given in Table S2.
