Fig. 1From: Conserved associations between G-quadruplex-forming DNA motifs and virulence gene families in malaria parasitesPhylogenetic tree of Laveranian, rodent, avian and human-infecting Plasmodium parasites. A phylogenetic tree depicting evolutionary relationships among Plasmodium parasites was compiled from existing published data [10, 11]. The tree is a schematic representation; thus, branch lengths do not reflect true evolutionary distancesBack to article page
