From: Amplicon deep sequencing of five highly polymorphic markers of Plasmodium falciparum reveals high parasite genetic diversity and moderate population structure in Ethiopia

Fig. 2

Structure plot (k = 3, admixture) showed moderate population structure. Parasites collected from Metema and Metehara-2015 shared ancestry from one group (red). Parasites from Wondogent and Metehara-2019 shared ancestry from another group (blue). Parasites with ancestry from the third group (green) were largely identified in Metehara-2019. Parasites from Metehara-2019 were dominated by two ancestral groups without much admixture (blue and green), suggesting possible clonal expansion of the two lineages
